Cold as stone, the bludgeoned and cracked skulls of 43 US presidents on a Virginian farm are not part of some bizarre crime scene, but the last remaining remnants of a presidential theme park that failed to attract the masses.The giant, 20 foot busts of American leaders were once part of the ill-fated Presidential Park in Williamsburg, which closed in 2010 due to dwindling visitors after six years in the tourist attraction game. In South Dakota there is a park that has all 44 president bust and room for more! The sad part is the park is abandoned and no one is taking care of this amazing park. Its closed to the public, but that didn't stop me from seeing a part of history. #presidentspark#each20feettall#history#day8ofvacationHouston artist David Adickes created the stone pieces to look like the Mount Rushmore carvings, report Smithsonian.com.
The 10 tonne works ended up becoming the main focal point of the $10 million tourist park which closed up shop in 2004.
Drone footage of the statues show the sculptures have fallen into disrepair. Dwight D Eisenhower, the 32nd president of the US, has much of his cranium missing.
