Trafalgar Lions

The lions in Trafalgar Square were all made with different moulds so they're all slightly different, they're looking in different directions. But they all weigh more than 20 tones. 

They were created in 1867 by sir Edwin Landseer. 
There is a myth that if Big Ben rings 13 times, they will come to life and protect London. The myth was mentioned as a joke by Pedro Pony in peper pig. Most people didn't get it though.
