TOP 15 Tallest Statues and Monuments

Humans have, for many thousands of years, built huge monuments that, rather than being to provide basic needs like housing or warmth, are more for cultural purposes instead. Designed as memorials, or as signs of religious dedication, they are normally designed to convey a powerful message across the local region, and require the dedication of a huge workforce to make possible. It’s time, then, to tour the world and reveal the top 15 tallest statues and monuments.

Just try to picture the scale of the statue of unity. It could easily hold the statue of liberty like a small oscar trophey. Insane

[@Lady_boom_bitch]

First and thank you for the video

[@mattwedelich347]

Impressive.😊

[@abdallahmajura2519]

👌 👏 wow

[@davidorr5159]

Please check out the GWK in Bali Indonesia before compiling your next list. After all, it's only 4 times the size of the Statue of Liberty.

[@crashaviation7272]

I’ve been inside the gateway arch before when I was little and we went up the elevator and went to the top

[@android3183]

Love from Bokeo😍

[@gowheregotherenow]

I thought christ the redeemer in Brazil, and the statue of liberty would make this list but I guess not! Learnt something! 😅😊

[@Leo-pd4fc]

I want visit in Rio De Janiro and see the Jesus statue and Thailand's the great Buddha. Those Japanese statues are beautiful too and good video btw. 🔥🔥

[@Lalalala22537]

[@Pete-jh4th]

Hello 👋

[@anasqai]

I have ever imagined maybe alot of people come from Ancient Trees Jungles as an exploration and reach this country to sell Rare Animals and maybe fast geniuses/smartness to become a shipmakers experts like a Military(i imagine) or even "Goodshape" Helicopters, then if look a this, is a high tall statue, if the workforce moves into a Rescue way instead of spending time making? I imagine the earning is more or not if do a different Job? This is high drop, misbelief into a warring label, then just to make faces? If girl secretly gifted men to not look at other guys and gals(if see the statue may be a no clothes?)? Just thinking important stuff about Life Gains and Increament of Happiness and Health. Now is hot to walk around because of equator Hole.

bruh is that big Benjamin

I have trouble understanding things like this. Every country on the planet needs help. Hunger is a problem worldwide but millions upon millions are spent on things like these statues. I don't get it, never will. The money made from the tourist dollars don't go back to helping those who need it, and instead goes to more useless things.

[@travisreifke4356]

Sounds to me like you DO get it. We humans are stupid. It's pretty much that simple.

[@SasaSasa-wy9wu]

Greed, it’s all about the money. Greed is an unchecked addiction

[@yasaswynandavareek8399]

Agree with you to some extent. However, forget about the tourism money. We never know if certain money goes towards one's in need

[@officialrainaa6117]

I have megalophobia , so I’d be scared as hell but at the same time I’m ALWAYS wanting to visit and see things like this 😭 I never understood why I like to put myself around these things when I’m scared of it , Also I think Motherland Calls should’ve been on this list . It’s also one of the biggest , it’s actually bigger than a few of the ones announced earlier into the vid.

[@danielobrien1571]

I admire ladies that have long and beautiful hair, can you describe how long yours is and how it looks on you?

[@pretti4ashun]

Is that what that's called??? Cuz baby!!! I feel this fear. I still go b uz it's once in a lifetime but sheesh.

[@danielobrien1571]

@@pretti4ashun How long do you keep your hair? I admire ladies that grow theirs extreme lengths, describe it all please?

[@SasaSasa-wy9wu]

Girl we’re the same. It’s fascinating but also scary

[@ronaldharding3927]

That statue in Japan will make quite a noise when the inevitable earthquake takes it down. Imagine 4000tons in free fall. That butterfly falling probably will be felt I'm Central Park.

[@dontfearthereaper2887]

I'm sure they took precautions to make it earthquake resistant

[@LouisaMonte]

Just read your about page. Did you know if you take the D word out you may get thousands of more views?

[@uknewslink]

Doesn’t the statue of Christ the redeemer in Brazil count as one of the tallest statues in the world.

[@michalddddddddd]

If you're talking about the one in Rio de Janeiro, maybe and maybe not, but there is a bigger one in poland

[@chriscovington11]

It's only about 100ft without it's pedestal. It just looks huge bc it's on the top of a mountain.

[@ronaldharding3927]

Sounds a little bit like the USA's angst about some of their monuments--the feeling of angst about the crucible of European fascism.

[@user-jn7tc3tp2x]

What about the statue of Christ in Rio De Janeiro?!

[@arcticrunning8370]

Why the Buddha look like a sexy lady? 🤔

[@SUPREETH.]

1st one was literally useless.
