just realized I'm being slow and that nick b & soref were talking about the same thing. can't believe I've never heard of the dream. seems like quite an ambiguous statue. catches the sunshine well, as does the african renaissance monument

Probably going for the Motherland Calls, though I might go old-school and vote for the Colossus.
I do quite like the Angel of the North, but it doesn't stack up to the competition.

pic is not big but this thing really is impressive in person.
"The Tower of the Sun (太陽の塔 Taiyō no Tō?) is a building created by Japanese artist Tarō Okamoto. It was known as the symbol of Expo '70 and currently is preserved and located in the Expo Commemoration Park in Suita, Osaka, Japan. The tower has three faces on its front and back."

I'd say the pedestal might not count, but then a certain green lady shows up.
― pplains, Sunday, 11 September 2022 03:27 (one year ago) link
Yeah, it's a cool video but the measurements are weird. I was under the impression that the standard way of measuring statue height is to include staffs (staves?) etc but to not count pedestals - I get that would prob spoil the aesthetic of such a video, but not convinced that they've got things right the way they've done it.
Also, I somehow missed that Bolivia ripped off Christ the Redeemer and made a bigger one, and then (not included in that video) Poland ripped them both off and made an even bigger one again!
