Standing close to 25 feet tall, this impressive piece of art is in constant motion as the 4 individual wands fill with water, become unbalance and eventually tip, allowing the large volume of water to almost shoot out of the end.
If you can't come to see it in person, be sure to watch the YouTube video.
