How frickin HUGE is that one then??

Unless...it's a small scaled building model under it, that is mega!

Nope. Full size. It's his tomb, apparently.

Not statues, but at the UN HQ in New York all the former secretary generals are immortalised in carpet form.

The Korean War Memorial in Washington looks SO good at night time. It's pretty eery!

 

[D'Angelo Saxon]

And a most excellent use of public money by the President of Senegal here (check out the size of it ):

Wow. Is that for real??

Dublin: big on statues. Oscar Wilde (colloquially known to locals, apparently, as "the fag on the crag"), Molly Malone ("the tart with the cart"), Phil Lynott ("the ace with the bass"), James Joyce ("the prick with the stick")

"Ross the Toss", surely?

Here's one I took of a statue of Mikael Silvestre. Incredible place, well worth a visit.

Amarillo Texas

Blimey, you beat me to it Mr H!

I went there about 6 years ago & added some extra aerosol-based-biz on a couple of the exhibits. Would've been bloody rude not to, quite frankly.

Statue of a giant piece of shit (Ponta Grossa, Brazil)
