I pulled in there yesterday to get a sandwich. I was on the entrance ramp when I saw this billboard, I pulled over immediately. Didn't know how I could help the guy, but, damn.
Well, I got faked out. It is a plywood cutout. The cutout is hinged at the top, so that it sways in the breeze.
The breeze was blowing yesterday and the damn thing was moving! The way his leg was bent I thought a guy was hanging up there.
I had to walk around for a minute or two to see that it was a prank. A plywood cutout all painted up, plus a real aluminum ladder. This thing looks more real in person than it does in the pic.
The east Alabama guy who cooked this up is a real artist.
I guarantee there have been several 911 calls on this, especially when the wind is blowing.
