Statues

The United States boasts a few statue-related records. The Statue of
Liberty is the largest copper sculpture in the world. Mount Rushmore -
in the Black Hills near Keystone - is both the largest monument and
the most sizable figure carved in a rock. Each of the four heads of
the U.S. Presidents measure 18 meters tall. Compare it to the Zizkov
Monument in Prague, the biggest equestrian memorial. It stands a mere
9 meters tall.
There are rules regulating the appearance of horse-mounted military
men. If the person died in battle, the two front legs of the horse
must be extended in the air. If only one of the horse's front legs is
lifted, the person was merely wounded in battle, though he died later
of his wounds. All four legs firmly on the ground - the person died of
natural causes.
