Ben Chiller
The troll Ben Chiller sat back in 2015 for the Northside festival in Aarhus. Back then, Ben sat and 'chilled' to the music of the festival. Since then, Ben Chiller has moved to a place near Mørke on Djursland, where he still chills to this day. During the festival, it was possible for the participants to chill on Ben Chiller's 11 meter long legs.
Even more trolls since then
Since Ben Chiller joined, even more trolls have moved in, around Denmark. Among other things. during corona, where Thomas Dambo started "The Great Troll Folk Festival".
"The Great Troll Festival" is the name of the project that arose due to Covid-19. Thomas Dambo should actually have built 25 trolls around the world, but due to the pandemic, Thomas flew to Denmark, where the troll folk party was created with the help of a lot of volunteer labor from locals around Denmark.
