The Colossus of Rhodes was a statue of the Greek god Helios, erected on the Greek island of Rhodes by Chares of Lindos between 292 and 280 BC. It is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Before its destruction, the Colossus of Rhodes stood over 30 meters (107 ft) high, making it one of the tallest statues of the ancient world. Video sourece: Discovery Channel

  • @MrFalloutUniverse you dont know anything about our history so silence please....dont make me take measures....

  • @internationalgiant1 ..no obama

  • @IIIArrow711 There are plans underway to rebuild it. Should help with tourism, I think.

  • Amazing..

  • In 2008, this statue was confirmed to be rebuild! It will cost roughly €200,000,000. Can't wait.

  • Haha he said 3rd leg.

    Notice the statue when crumbling buckled at its Knees. First of all the statue was destroyed by God because of the act of Idolatry by the Rhodians. The statue buckled at it's knees signifying the statues creators needed to humble themselves, get down on their knees and worship the true Father God.

  • FUCKING OTTOMANS melted the fallen statue for scrap metal, worthless philistine muslims

  • Romans better god killers then Kratos...

  • 12yr why not 7yr?

  • They will be guessing the fate of our monuments in the future. I hope they blame it on Bush.
