Blue Mustang (colloquially known as Blucifer) is a cast-fiberglass sculpture of a mustang located at Denver International Airport (DEN). Colored bright blue, with illuminated glowing red eyes, it is notable both for its striking appearance and for having killed its sculptor, Luis Jiménez, when a section of it fell on him at his studio.

That is smaller than I thought it would be from the picture. I assumed the lights at the bottom of the picture were streetlights that were comparably far from the photographer.

It’s 32 ft/~10 meters tall
