Bob Duato Clear Channel Shark (Murrells Inlet, SC)

This giant shark head can be found near the road in front of Jaws Resort Wear in Murrels Inlet, SC. According to its creator, Bob Duato, the head was originally made for Clear Channel:

"I made that head in my shop for Clear Channel. They did billboards and stuff. It was in Garden City, not far from that store. They asked me if I could build a head like that. They were a little reluctant, thinking it wouldn't work and would be too heavy but I knew I could do it. I built it and brought it out on a trailer. The guys from Clear Channel picked it up with a crane and bolted it to the billboard. They put their sign behind it. It looked like the head was splashing through the water. Then the land got sold and the head ended up in storage for eight years or something crazy."
