Re: More big Jesus

Sista C, this thread made me curious about big Jesus statues around the world. the Rio one is famous, but a nuffa dem out deh.

This one is claiming to be the largest in the world (for the Jesus part, not counting the basis).

Cristo de la Concordia in Bolivia. 33 metres high, one metre for every year of Jesus' life

Re: More big Jesus

Christ of the Ozarks in Arkansas. Much photographed but not much loved because of the lack of warmth in the expression.



Side view. don't know why im bottom so big.

Re: More big Jesus

Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim country, also has one of the world's biggest Jesus statues. This one gets mixed reviews. I think to create the impression of him ascending (?), some awkward machinery had to be installed.

Re: More big Jesus

Vietnam have a big Jesus too.

Re: More big Jesus

another american one, this time in Salt Lake City, Utah. Surprising that he is relatively naked compared to the other big Jesuses, thought the Mormons believed in nuff clothes.

Re: More big Jesus

All those statues of gods and not one black one,I think they should build one in jamaica,lots of them would take comfort from seeing a huge efigy of a white man watching over them,give them that nice warm oozy feeling of knowingg maassa is there looking over his pickaninnies.

Wouldnt they be better off using the money they use to build these enormous monstrosities feeding the poor in their societies.
