HE'S BIG IN BIRMINGHAM ... the gigantic new David Beckham ad for Adidas next to the M6

DAVID BECKHAM has the biggest head in the world — and that's official!

Motorists on the M6 are likely to be stunned to see the 25-metre high picture of the England skipper on the side of Birmingham's Fort Dunlop.

Beckham's bonce is on an enormous adidas ad which takes up nearly an ACRE and will be visible for more than a mile.

The Manchester United midfield man admitted: "I can't believe I'm going to be 25 metres high in Birmingham in May and June!

"I think it's going to be absolutely amazing. I've seen the pictures already and it's going to look great."

The gigantic Becks picture measures 20m from forehead to chin and another 20m from ear to ear. His nose alone is five metres long.

The two-ton advertisement is bigger than a normal football pitch, while a 20-man team have spent the last three days constructing it.

The ad is part of a huge adidas World Cup campaign focusing on GoldenBalls Beckham, who is now the highest-paid player in the world having just signed his new, £90,000-a-week United deal.

Hundreds of Beckham poster sites across the UK will now feature the company's 'Cometh the hour' slogan.

Harry Torrance of the Giant Poster Company said: "The construction of this ad has been a very tough process. We've had cranes, trucks and climbing experts working through the night to get this up in time and safely.

"At least we now have some idea how he feels having the weight of the nation on his shoulders!"
