His weird body is the creepy part of this statue. It looks like his body is underwater and you’re viewing it from above the surface in the way that makes it look squashed.

Torso is too short.
I'd still be willing to piss on it.
Edit: Looking at it again, I still think the creepiest part about it is it looks like Charlie Kirk.
