4. Oh my god. Unbelievable.

In Ohio in the Cincinnati area on I 75 there used to be a huge Jesus statue,
62 feet high, in front of some sort of evangelical type protestant church.
His arms were stretched out like Touchdown Jesus.

People called him Butter Jesus because he looked like he was made of butter.
He was sitting down in huge pool of water and he was so big
it looked like his legs and feet ran under the interstate to the other side.

So everyone would tell their kids and friends from out of town to look for Jesus' feet
on the other side of the interstate, as a joke.

But alas a couple of years ago Butter Jesus got hit by lighting and burned to a crisp.
It was just made of styrofoam and fiberglass and was heavily insured, good thing.

Everyone missed him and the church built another Jesus but smaller and he didn't look like butter.
He is standing up and has the biggest anti lighting rod on his head.
