Remember the monster fatberg? It’s in the Museum of London now. https://arstechnica.com/science/2018/08/stinky-festering-sewage-now-21st-century-artifact-watch-the-livestream/I still think they need to make a movie about the men who went down into the Whitechapel sewer and cut it up.
Holbrook and his colleagues talked Thames Water into handing over a couple of manageable chunks. One is about the size of a shoebox while the other is a bit smaller. The rest of the dislocated fatberg is in the hands of a waste company that will convert it into 100,000 liters of biodiesel.
Given the popularity, the museum moved to add the sewage to its permanent collection—and set up a livestream from quarantine. Even though the chunks are now in isolation, the action hasn’t stopped. Since the exhibits, the preserved fatberg has sprouted new mold growth, identified as aspergillus.

New mold growth! Just when you thought you'd seen it all.
