World's tallest Jesus statue completed
Workers in Poland finished erecting the world's tallest statue of Jesus over the weekend, a 170-foot (52-meter) giant that towers over the countryside near Swiebodzin.
"This is the culmination of my life's work as a priest. I felt inspired to fulfill Jesus' will, and today I give thanks to him for allowing me to fulfill his will," Father Zawadzki said after the head was attached by a 700-ton crane, according to a report from the Warsaw Business Journal.
A crane places the head on the world's tallest Jesus statue this weekend in Poland.
The height of the plaster and fiberglass Polish statue surpasses the 40.4-meter (133-foot) Cristo de la Concordia in Cochabamba, Bolivia, and the 39.6-meter (130-foot) Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, according to news reports.
Local officials in the town of 21,000 people hope it will be a tourist attraction.
"More people will visit Swiebodzin and leave their money," Radio Poland quoted Dariusz Bekisz, the mayor of Swiebodzin, as saying.
The cost of the statue was covered by local donations, according to the Krakow Post. It will be officially consecrated on November 21.
I love zumba. This video could be the older version but just as effective. It truly does work every part of your body and it's fun to bounce. Tones and helps you to drop some weight. I adore it! It also comes with the shaking maraccas which will make a great deal of noise when used (obvioiusly), and included an evening meal plan and workout schedule. English and Spanish. Recieved it in like 3 days whenever i ordered, so that it arrived pretty fast!
