Have you ever been to a museum of wax figures? A short part of the wax exhibition in Saint-Petersburg is also presented in Donetsk. Let’s see whether the figures look like real people and whether they resemble those fictional characters whom we imagine.
Peter the Great, the last Russian Tsar and the first Emperor, the founder of Leningrad who was 204 cm high. He loved shaving off bears of his nationals to make them look more like Europeans and build ships.
Adolf Hitler, the leader of the Nazi, 175 cm high. His weight was 70 kg, he had A blood group and blue eyes and was a real representative of the Arian race. He hated Communists and dentists. He suffered from constant depression, was a bit greedy and even stopped smoking because of that.
Joseph Stalin, an active fighter and Bolshevik, who participated in competitions related to improvement of heavy industry. He was married twice and had 2 sons and 1 daughter.
Saddam Hussein, an oppressor of free Iraqi people, who was withstanding everything and everyone. He improved the level of life of his nationals by sale of oil. He also started a war with Iran that lasted 8 years. He was sentenced to death by hanging.
the quality is “meh” … JFK is unrecognizable
these figures are really crappy
Most of them aren’t good. Not even close to Madame Tussauds!
The only figure that actually has any similarity is Fantomas.
I hardly recognized most of them. Poor work IMHO.
Some of these are good. Others, not so much.
How come Jesus is always depicted as a bearded, thirty- something white guy of northern European extraction. Malcom X’s portrait of him was much closer to reality: a curly haired, lightly bearded, dark- skinned guy of middle east extraction.
Arafat was born in Cairo.
Kennedy stopped WWIII?? It takes two to tango. Copernicus is a personal favorite- a true genius.
Kennedy stopped world war III? Dammit, I have traveled through time again?? and this time everything is messed up, you see in my time, world war three never happened. I should’ve never bought a Delorean.
what happened to Copperfields arm???
These are shockers! I couldn’t even guess at Princess Diana or JFK without checking the captions.
Jacki Kennedy looks like Michael Jackson in a dress, and former president Bush looks more like John Wayne!
hahahaha. Another example of Russian wit. Of course they are crappy, I guess thats the whole point.
Hitler was NOT a representative of the Aryan race as he was short and had brown hair – a far cry from the tall, blonde, Nordic people that were the ideal Aryans.
And there were a lot of Americans who were strongly opposed to the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. Only the more outspoken Americans who supported Bush ever seem to be heard. Not everyone in America are mindless idiots who favor militarized foreign policy.
Arafat is supposed to look a lot uglier.
