A first look at the statue, I can say that it was created by a great sculptor. Don’t go too fast! If you look at the back of that statue, you can find a crazy alien. What is the alien doing there?!? We can read on the statue “You shall know the TRUTH and the TRUTH shall make you FREE”. The Statue is located in Hamilton Island, Australia. The Island is used almost exclusively for tourism. It’s also the largest inhabited island of the Whitsunday Islands. Many festivals are hosted on the island. It seem to be a great destination to spend some qualities time with your friends or lover(s).

Maybe the alien is there to seek the truths?

Other than that your pictures from this island was amazing. It’s so exotic to a Norwegian you know:-)

Well, the Truth does set one free … that’s a very crazy statue; how the guy is all stuck in “stone” - but what is the alien doing? What’s it holding onto? … and more importantly, does this island have a history of UFO or Alien Sightings? I’ll have to look more into this; thanks for posting it.
