9. World's tallest statue of a turtle riding a snowmobile - Tommy Turtle, in Bottineau, North Dakota, United States

As it's hard to pinpoint the world's tallest statue so BootsnAll instead chose a less controversial category. Tommy the Turtle stands 30 feet and he's riding a 34-foot-long snowmobile just about 10 miles south of the Canadian border.
