 Discovery Unveils Giant Tattooed Statues for 'London Ink' Published: Jun 28, 09 Comments: 1 Views: 7,071 This super-sized swimmer is a part of an unusual publicity stunt for ‘London Ink,’ a new Discovery Channel reality series. The Discovery Channel placed two giant statues in London to promote the series; the gallery above depicts the first statue, which is placed near London Bridge and features a swimmer. The 46-foot long swimmer is made of polystyrene and has been hand-painted to look just like human skin. The second ‘London Ink’ statue depicts a woman attempting to get into a photo booth, and it’s located at Victoria Station.  A spokeswoman for The Discovery Channel said: “We created these because we want people to interact with them. We want people to get out their camera phones and take pictures of them, and of their friends with them. We want to create a real stir.
