It takes at least a dozen people to get this shrine up – as it composed of a 44-stone wooden phallus.

An amazing video captures the sculpture’s parade through the streets as part of a fertility festival.

Hōnen Matsuri is a festival celebrated every year on March 15 in Japan to celebrate a bountiful harvest, as well as prosperity and fertility.

The most famous festival takes place in Komaki, a small city 159 miles west of the capital Tokyo.

In the city’s celebration involves Shinto priests playing musical instruments, a parade of ceremonially dressed participants, all-you-can-drink sake, and a 44st, 96 inch wooden phallus.
