Okay, so what don't you know about this thing?

* Despite living three millennia ago, David was a Renaissance man.

* The statue depicts David just before battle (hence the tense).

* It's twice as high as a typical American ceiling: 17 feet tall.

* In 1991, David got hammered - literally.

* And then there's this.
