People Keep Falling For A False Story About This Sculpture Of A Baby In A Mountain
Viral photo accounts keep sharing a fake backstory.
This giant sculpture of a baby in the womb was carved into a mountain near the town of Santo Domingo, Colombia, in 2012. Strangely, a photo of it is now going viral on Twitter, thanks to a tragic and totally false story about the man who carved it.

The @therealbanksy Twitter account, which has no connection with the artist of that name, shared the photo with a caption claiming it was "carved by a father who lost his wife and unborn child to a drunk driver." That tweet quickly racked up thousands of retweets.
