Wouldn't a bomb hitting close enough just make the bricks likely to collapse onto the statue and cause damage? ๐ค
If the bomb hit close enough to directly damage the bricks, it was gonna damage the statue anyway. This is for when a bomb hit close enough to and debris flying towards the statue, so that the bricks take the damage instead.
