The 22-foot statue of baby Jesus will haunt your nightmares
There have been numerous and varied depictions of Jesus Christ over the years, but none have been quite as strange as this one.
A 22-foot statue of the son of God has been unveiled in Mexico, and it will definitely cause you to take the Lord's name in vain.
People have commented on the statue's uncanny resemblance to Phil Collins - not least because of its odd hairline.
It's in the church of La EpifanÍa del Señor and weighs over 2000 pounds. It was made by sculptor Roman Salvador and commissioned by priest Humberto Rodriguez, who told the New York Post that he simply wanted something to 'fit the church' and “never intended to make it the biggest baby Jesus statue in the world.”
