Mystery of the sandbar piano solved

Teenager takes responsibility for hauling the grand piano on the Biscayne Bay sandbar:

Nicholas Harrington, 16, told CNN affiliate WPLG that he was behind the mystery, with a little help from his friends.

"I liked the idea of an anonymous piano out there, no explanation to it," he said, adding that he viewed it as art for a portfolio in a future college application.

Harrington shared with the station home video from before the holidays, when he and his father moved the baby grand piano from his grandmother's house to his, on a boat.

Weeks later, after purposely setting the piano on fire at a party, he, his father, and two of his friends decided to place it out on the sandbar, WPLG reported. "It was a solid surface. It wouldn't float away," Harrington told the station.
