This Indiana Skeleton is So Big, it Can be Seen From Space

There's a skeleton in Indiana so big, that it puts any other skeleton to shame in a VERY big way.

You see a lot of Halloween decorations throughout the state. One of the biggest and most popular items this time of year are those giant twelve-foot skeletons. You know the ones that I'm talking about, right? The ones that people have in front of their homes that are sometimes taller than the home itself. These skeletons are in such high demand that most people can't find them anywhere because the majority of places that sell them are sold out. We had one of those in our front yard last year until a windstorm came through and blew it over, breaking the skeleton's bones.

Well, there's one skeleton found in Indiana that makes those skeletons look tiny, and its name is very fitting...Funky Bones. This thing is so big that it can actually be seen from satellites in space!
