Fun fact, if you let that GIF play for 9 seconds the resulting Lego structure is larger than the area of the known universe.

I can see the stutter.

sauce pleeeeeeeeaaaase

How though? We don't know how big the structure is when you first click on the gif, because we are given no frame of reference. The size varies wildly depending on what units of measurement you assume.

But every iteration produces a new block that's 10x the height width and length of the old one. Basically the volume increases by 1000 fold. Over 9 seconds (10 iterations assuming we start on 1) the total volume increase would be 1000^10 or 1x10^30
Lego uses lego units which are 1.6mm each. Looking online it looks like a normal square block is 6 units or ~9.6mm not counting the nubs at the top since they go inside the new brick and don't add to the height at all. That means the block has a volume of roughly 9.6mm^3 or 8.8x10^-7m^3.
1x10^30 * 8.8x10^-7 yields a volume of 8.8x10^23m^3 which is less than 1/3rd the volume of the universe (4x10^80m^3).
Doing some quick math and you see that 29 loops of the gif will produce a volume of 8.8x10^80m^3, a volume larger than the universe.
