There was a story a couple years ago where a college kid fashioned himself some armor the looked authentic to the period and covered his face with clay and hid amongst the statues, and the Chi-Comm army had to search statue-to-statue to find him. I think the kid was British, IIRC. Brilliant prank, IMO. Even the commie gov’t got a laugh out of it.

That’s funny, but quite unbelievable.

There are 7,000 soldiers, 130 chariots, 520 horses and 150 cavalry horses.

I am wondering how long he stood there and what was his point?

Student finds brief fame as Terracotta Warrior

BEIJING, CHINA — A German art student briefly took up a place among China's famed Terracotta Warriors over the weekend — only to be discovered, disrobed and sent home. Pablo Wendel snuck into a pit housing around 2000 ancient lifesize pottery warriors and horses on Saturday afternoon, donned the military costume he had made himself, and took up a position on a small pedestal he had brought along.He stood there, motionless and unblinking, for a couple of minutes until police found him, the Xinhua news agency said.
