Krishna's butter ball

The Hindu God, Krishna's love for butter is a known fact. It is also known that Krishna would steal his mother's butter jar to satiate his appetite. So when this huge rock, perched on a slope in Mahabalipuram (60 kilometres from Chennai) managed to stay on instead of rolling over, it was christened 'Krishna's butter ball'. Mahabalipuram is a historic town known for stone carvings and many other attractions but this one has to be the most curious one. While believers visit this place to get blessed, other's are drawn by it's unique position and physics-defying ability to cling on to the slope.
