Regarding your last picture in this post (the one with the guy wrestling the giant sea-scorpion): see http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/3247691.stm - it's a recreation of a euryperid for a BBC TV show.
The real beasties are long extinct.
The really weird statue of a mother and children are from the Vigelandspark in Oslo, Norway. This isn't even the weirdest one!! Google it and see... i am sure there are many more pictures to be found

Thank God!
The picture is of Jez Gibson-Harris holding a robotic eurypterid (a 'sea scorpion' from the Ordovician period) built by Crawley Creatures for the BBC program "Sea Monsters", aired in 2003. The picture above, as well as another of the prop, and other props from the program, can be found at http://www.crawley-creatures.com/gallery/seamonsters.htm
I don't think that people should be rewarded for putting lives at risk.
But if you watch the "car vs train" incident, the offender seems to get advertising fees. I'm sure the train driver doesn't benefit.

Of course in the 10 more bridges post they have a photo of the Cheasapeake Bay Bridge (U.S. 50 in MD) instead of the Cheasapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel (U.S. 13 in VA)
