The state of Tamaulipas is planning to build the tallest statue of Jesus Christ anywhere on the world.
At 77 meters, the statue will be almost double the height of the Christ of Peace in Cochabamba, Bolivia (34.20 meters) and the Christ the Redeemer (30 meters) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The project is being spearheaded by the actor, model, singer and producer Eduardo Verastegui.
