Cerne Abbas Giant

Ever heard of the Cerne Abbas Giant in the UK? You have to look it up; this is seriously bizarre.

Rick Steves writes:

"While most of the giant figures are creations of the 18th and 19th century humanists reacting against the coldness of the industrial age, three Celtic figures have, as far as history is concerned, always been there.
The Cerne Abbas Giant is armed with a big club and an erection. For centuries, people fighting infertility would sleep on Cerne Abbas. And, as my English friend explained "Maidens can still be seen leaping over his willy."
