Survival of the Fattest

Next to the famous statue of "the Little Mermaide", there is a statue of "Survival of the Fattest". A very fat woman is carried by a thin man on the shoulder. The woman carries a scale on her hand, a symbol of justice. Her feet is above the water, but the man is half in the water. The board nearby says,
"I'm sitting on the back of a man.
He is sinking under the burden.
I would do anything to help him.
Except stepping down from his back."





Very nice. I praise the city official's decision to allow them to put such ironical sculpture at the most famous sightseeing spot.
For the information about those who made it, go http://www.sevenmeters.net/.
