Ever seen a creepier tower?



Super creepy tower in Prague... (Be sure to check out the last photo...)

That last photo’s the clincher for me - creepy as hell - and the fact that there are 10 of these huge crawling babies permanently attached to a television tower in the czech republic really makes you wonder what they were thinking.

On to the facts.

The tower itself, sans faceless toddlers, was built in the mid-late 80s and stands 216 meters tall. Even without the babies it’d be a strange looking beast, but that didn’t deter the geniuses in charge of the tower from permanently attaching david cerny’s sculptures to its legs - in 2000 they were added as a temporary installation but the public loved them so much that they were kept for good.

On that note, I’d like to personally thank the people of Prague for having incredible taste. This tower is a work of art. [via deputydog]
