In the United States has installed sculptures in memory of fictional tragedies
And everyone loved it.
It all started back in 2016. 47-year-old sculptor Joseph Reginella from new York installed a bronze statue “in the memory of the event in 1963, when the giant octopus sank a ferry in new York Harbor. On Board were 400 people”.

A year later, on the outskirts of Manhattan there is another monument — “a tribute to the victims of the elephants, which in October 1929, escaped from the circus, panicked on the Brooklyn bridge and trampled several of the financiers of wall street.”
In the fall of 2018 passers-by found near the monument to the six sailors, “which in 1977 was abducted by aliens”.

Talking about these “tragedies”, the sculptor of sly smiles, and the words about the aliens, even the most naive audience finally begin to understand what it is. All three fictional disaster from beginning to end, but the sculptures and legends caught on in new York that they require.
These hoaxes, there were even fan clubs, each of which consist of several thousand people. Every “disaster” has its own website, which in detail describes the event. There you can buy Souvenirs — t-shirts, mugs or postcards with the image of the sculptures.

Reginella makes his living designing sets for movies and theme parks, and in his spare time creates sculptures with his characteristic sense of humor.
What “event” will be dedicated to the next statue, the wizard is not telling, but says it plans to relax a bit before you take on truly ambitious project.
