July 19, 2008: žižkov TV Tower

[xoxoxoBruce]

This TV tower in Prague, is unusual in shape, but more unusual is the 10 huge crawling babies permanently attached to it.

the tower itself, sans faceless toddlers, was built in the mid-late 80s and stands 216 metres 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

Even more creepy are the babies themselves.
