Well huh. I knew the Japanese had Shinto ceremonies where people(sometimes young girls, who may or may not be dressed by Western standards) carry around a giant wooden penis, but I have not read anything about ones with giant pairs of boobs.
Mentioned this on Angel's blog already. Shinto, which I'm pretty sure is the dominant religion in Japan, is totally a fertility cult and as a result they have some really weird religious imagery.
I tried to gather more information about this particular picture(the people look more Korean than Japanese, but knowing me that probably means they're Norweigian), but images.google.com was particularly unhelpful this time.

"An artwork called The World's Largest Breasts, by Chinese artist Shu Yong, is towed by an ox in Qingyuan, Guangdong Province, China"
That makes way more sense than my answer, Cedar.
