A six-story statue of Jesus Christ was struck by lightning and burned to the ground near Cincinnati, Ohio, on June 14, 2010.
"The King of Kings" statue was a local landmark built in 2004 near the evangelical Solid Rock Church in Monroe.
The sculpture, about 62 feet tall and 40 feet wide at the base, showed Jesus from the torso up and was nicknamed Touchdown Jesus because of the way the arms were raised, similar to a referee signaling a touchdown. It was made of plastic foam and fiberglass over a steel frame, which is all that remained.
The damages from the fire were estimated at $700,000, $300,000 for the statue and $400,000 for the attic area of the amphitheater, which was also damaged in the blaze.
