The worst part is that none of them got severely punishment for their stupidity.

This list will make you lose faith in humanity.

How the hell does cutting down a wholly unique, historic, and sacred tree accomplish any kind of protest against the logging industry? The loggers hadn't touched the tree for the centuries that commercial logging had been happening in Canada. That idiot just did WORSE than the logging guys did. And, worse, by felling that tree, he effectively opened up the whole surrounding area to even more logging, since I'm sure the tree's status was a measure of defense for the whole area.

I was a Boy Scout.

When we were camping, we were told: “Take only pictures. Leave only footprints.”

That’s what I did. And still do.

To quote Jello Biafra, "go trash a bank if you've got real balls."

Waste of existence.

Donald Currey was attempting to take a core sample from Prometheus when the extremely expensive equipment he had been loaned became stuck. The ranger gave him permission and assistance in felling the tree, at which point the rings were counted and the record-setting age of the tree was determined.

Currey was so devastated about his accidentally destruction of such a venerable tree that he switched fields from forestry to geology. He went on to become a prominent figure in the field of geology, but the felling of Prometheus haunted him. He even once literally ran away from an interviewer who tried to broach the subject.

Donald Curry had no malicious intent with regard to his involvement with Prometheus.

This is why aliens don't visit us, they don't want humans messing up their nice stuff

[lbxwxfq]

A quality example of: why we can't have nice things.

I knew I recognized that tree and stone wall:

The Sycamore Gap tree can be seen in Robin Hood:Prince of Thieves from 1991.

[Jennifer-ien]

I don't understand why people think it's so funny to destroy nature like this. It's not funny at. I'm bet the people are the same people who does this wouldn't want their stuff destroyed

[Ken-lkcg]

And them seeing it on tv, makes them proud. How ignorant

[martinwestern]

This list just proves how awful humans can be, it'll make you lose all faith in humanity

[shlock]

People are so annoying, these vandals should be found, fined heavily, sit in jail and banned from ever going anywhere—ever—again

[jetzeschaafsma]

Only real problem is that these people are walking free.

One natural wonder that was ruined by morons that I know personally about is right in my town: the Devil’s Chair of Taylors Falls, MN. It was a rock formation that was worn over time by the elements into a chair shape that came to be known as the Devil’s Chair. It was a great tourist attraction and was always featured on the cover of the city’s brochure. Unfortunately, it suffered a similar fate as the Duckbill, when a bunch of idiot teenagers climbed up to the rock formation and pushed the Devil’s Chair off the ledge and it tumbled down the cliff, shattering to pieces on the river bank far below. 😡

0:11 I can’t watch this video because it will make me screaming bad words

[Thugalicious]

Maybe people wouldn’t feel so brazen if any of these people faced any actual consequences. Close off all these areas to tourists. Nobody deserves the privilege of seeing such beautiful places.
