A driver in Thailand filmed an amazing procession of life-like giant statues of Buddhist monks that passed by him going the other way.<br /><br />The 15ft high sculptures of the revered religious elders in their orange and saffron robes were being driven to a festival in Uttaradit, northern Thailand, on October 25, at around 6:00pm local time. <br /><br />There were nine realistic-looking figures in total, a homage to the spiritual figures picked from famous monks from the local area. <br /><br />Motorist Suchaya Sripitak is heard saying in the video: ''Oh, they are the old monks, it's good luck, show your respect.''<br /><br />Speaking afterwards, she said: ''It was a beautiful procession. I'm honoured to have seen it.''
