These are pictures of contestants participating in a living statues contest held in the Russian city of Sochi. Imagine having to maintain the same pose for hours at a time! An occasional sudden movement would definitely scare an unsuspecting passer by.

Oh my goodness, those are really cool, but creepy too!
ReplyDeleteWow...amazing doesn't begin to describe!!!
ReplyDeleteBestest Buddie, if I stood next to one of those people, and one had to sneeze, I'd have heart failure! awesome!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this post! I am going to have to share it with my group of bloggers who are/have adopted from Russia! Hope it's okay - I'll surely give you the credit!
ReplyDeleteWe saw a number of these around Paris. They were really cool. I was staring at one and it suddenly winked at me! :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic! Love seeing what you post! You have an award on my website will be up shortly :)
ReplyDeleteThe lady holding the baby??? Is the baby a doll? I would hope so!
ReplyDeleteToo cool!
Those are really cool. I cannot imagine standing in those poses for that long!
ReplyDeleteWOW that is amazing how cool. They had one guy like that in Mexico when we were there.
ReplyDeleteThe one had the eyes closed I'd certainly fall over!
How great! Gee I bet that centurion would have had sore arms by the end of the day!!
ReplyDeleteWe have these guys all over the French Quarter in New Orleans. If you're not paying attention, you'd pass them by thinking it was a real statue. Of course the catch is they jump out to 'scare' you and want $5!!
ReplyDeleteThat is freaky, I would have a heart attack
