There are plenty of medical breakthroughs out there that have changed our lives for the better, and though some might think the enema is one of them, most would prefer not to bring that up in conversation. But in the Russian city of Zheleznovodsk, located in the Caucasus mountain region, a spa recently erected a monument to the procedure.
The monument, an 800-pound bronze bulb syringe being held by three angels, was accompanied by a banner that read, "Let's beat constipation and sloppiness with enemas." The Caucasus mountain region is famous for its spas and mineral waters, which are used during enemas to relieve digestive problems.
The sculptor says that the statue was made with "irony and humor," while the spa's director said that, "The enema is almost a symbol of our region." I guess everyone is good at something... but I'm not sure that something needs to be bronzed!
