#97 - Easter Island Heads

Despite being hundreds of years old the Easter Island heads still look like Brad Pitt, Adrien Brody, and Ryan Reynolds all rolled into one giant, albeit smashed in, stone face. Let me tell you the story of how these statues were constructed. Around the year 1000 AD the most beautiful people in the world got together on a small island and forced the natives to carve stone images of them. Then they got angry because they weren't able to marry the statues of themselves and toppled them all over. What? You don't believe me? Check wikipedia.
