Correct! A 2007 University of Iceland survey found that 62 percent of Icelanders believe in real-life elves. In fact, in 2014, protesters claimed a proposed highway would destroy an "elf church," which was just a gigantic rock to many. Eventually, the "church" was moved to a safe place, and the construction continued. Though the stone weighed 70 tons and required a crane to move it, the preservation of sites important to elves is significant to Icelanders. The country's elf history dates back to Viking-era poems from around the year 1000. To Icelanders, these elves are not tiny figures who build toys for Santa; they look very much like humans and can range in size. Many believe that grave misfortune will befall those who dare to build in elf territory. Which U.S. state has a "scarlet letter" punishment for drunk drivers?
