Giant Rubber Duck Deflates in Hong Kong After One Day

  • One of two giant inflatable rubber ducks in Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour deflated.
  • The ducks were part of an art installation by Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman.
  • The duck's deflation was a precautionary measure due to increasing heat and air pressure.
  • The ducks debuted on Friday and were set to float for two weeks, but overheated.
  • Hofman's duck installations have gained popularity, touring internationally since 2007.
