Sculpture
World’s Largest Human Spine
Rexroth Chiropractic Center, 2411 W Mount Pleasant Street, West Burlington
319-752-4544
Don’t miss a visit to this giant human spine. Carved out of a tree by sculptor and art teacher, Chris Mulder, the spine stands 15 feet tall behind the Rexroth Chiropractic office and is the largest carved and painted human spine in the world. The spine is anatomically correct and, if real, would belong to a person standing 35 feet tall.
