Which *real* person, living or dead, has the most statues erected of them in their honour?
Buddah?
Gotta be Jesus. Or Mary. Or God?
A statue gets erected here every morning in honour of Mrs.C's hotness.
Alternatively, Buddah.
anywhere in the world? I would think that the winner would be someone/somewhere in the UK or Europe in general, but could also be in Latin America I suppose.
Queen Victoria
Ronald McDonald?
Kim Jong Il?

Yeah anywhere in the world, let's keep religious figures out of this because the jury's out on all of them.
An American president (Lincoln)?
Forgotten soldier (but that's a cheat)
Gotta be Jesus. Or Mary. Or God?

The guys with big head from the easter islands?
Someone Chinese.
Lenin?
Stalin?
WTF!!!
WTF!!! +1
An American president (Lincoln)?
Probably not old Abe---don't think he would come close to others mentioned, i.e. Queen Victoria, Mao, etc. Once one gets away from the eastern seaboard, statues of anyone out here in the hinterlands are kind of sparse
Elvis
David, as in Michaelangelo's David?

Buddha was definitely real, this is not contested.
According to wiki answers it's Queene (sic) Victoria. We are not amused.
Not sure but these are pretty [url= http://www.cracked.com/article_19155_the-14-most-unintentionally-terrifying-statues-in-world.html ]terrifying. [/url]

Mr pawn.
David, as in Michaelangelo's David?
Thats an allegorical figure though - Michealangelo never met the biblical David, its a sculpture that evokes the story, not a likeness of the individual.
As actual sculptural likenesses of people alive or dead - then faces on coins will have been reproduced more than most other 3d likenesses. Lincoln is still on the america Cent, so being a low denomination and a long innings that would be a high scorer. The queen appears on all these currencies though

However there are rather a lot of status erected in honour of Ist Baron Isaac Leslie Hore-Belisha, but they are maybe a bit too moderne for many people's tastes 🙂
CaptJon - I'm suspicious whether your picture shows all the same person. I can see a couple of guys who appear to be different. Specially the ones with four legs.
Is it that little gold chinese cat?
I can't believe it's not Buddha
Good work!
In the uk the red lion?
