for them to have the intentions of just
knocking over the rock for the sole
purpose of being vandals just you know
just makes me upset welcome to watch
Mojo and today we're counting down our
picks for the top 10 tourist attractions
ruined by morons any American who stands
in those beautiful places
will be equally angry about this I mean
it's something that every American feels
very close to for this list we'll be
looking at the Times tourists caused
damage to Historic and otherwise
noteworthy travel locations which of
these angers you the most let us know in
the comments number 10. casatos moros
domen Vigo Spain despite the fact that
there are so many morons doing moronic
things in this world it's always kind of
shocking when things like this happen a
popular tourist attraction in Virgo
Spain is the casa dos moros Dolmen a 4
000 year old megalithic stone formation
in 2016 someone spray painted one of the
Dolmen stones with a symbol from Harry
Potter of all things and wrote Always
with what appears to be an emoticon
heart at the end it's honestly an
inexplicable action and defies any
Common Sense dolmens are believed by
archaeologists to be tombstones and
grave sites so not only is this immature
it is highly disrespectful treacherous
little bleeder he said no one we can
trust number nine Margate Beach Margate
England this is something that happens
frequently but let's just pick out one
beach in particular Margate in Kent UK
refers to itself as the original Seaside
on tourist sites and is home to many
attractions such as a theme park and art
galleries in 2019 an event attracting
around 500 people was held on the beach
in addition to the number of usual
beachgoers the event was provided with
trash bins bags and plenty of Provisions
to not make a huge mess in the sand this
was all futile however as visitors were
said to leave a heartbreaking amount of
litter on the beach the seagulls were
thrilled humans not so much
Andy
are you gonna clean that up
oh yeah I will number eight The Cliffs
of Moore Ireland The Cliffs of more were
naturally formed over 320 million years
ago and are a unique geological Wonder
to behold on the coast of Ireland
they've been declared part of a UNESCO
Global geopark which means that there is
extra effort to conserve the location
and it's all striking visuals however we
clearly can't have nice things this
particular location is out of the way it
won't be visible to tourists by and
large my concern is a lot of people
copycat will will do other artwork in
2013 two French graffiti artists who go
by mama and dirty eduar decided to spray
paint an eight by six foot swirly
multi-colored and impossibly unwelcome
abstract piece of street art on the
cliffs why just why why would they do
such a foolish thing geologists were
quick to assess the damage some saying
that erosion and waves will likely
naturally remove the paint however it
could take years and possibly decades to
an entirely disappear The Rock's 300
million years old it's got its own
natural beauty it's weathered by the
waves the wind over vast periods of time
that's why people come to see they don't
come to see somebody spray painting it
number seven The Little Mermaid statue
Copenhagen Denmark copenhagen's most
famous statue The Little Mermaid has
been victim to vandalism an astonishing
number of times over the years
look at you look at you there's
something different it seems people have
seen the piece fit for a number of
protest declarations the statue was
commissioned in 1909 and has since been
beheaded twice had her arms sawed off
was found floating in the harbor held
some adult toys and has been covered in
paint a couple of times in 2020 a vandal
spray painted the words racist fish onto
the stone beneath the mermaid without
any direct explanation a number of
monuments have been defaced in the past
few years with explanations it's hard to
see what the character that would
eventually become Ariel did to anybody
however number six 15 statues parque
Museo laventa Tabasco Mexico the the
problem with allowing tourists to view
historical objects in a large open space
is that they are much too close to the
artifacts stay back Kaiju specimens are
extremely rare so look but don't touch
this has often been an issue in the
British museum for the same reason the
parque Museo La Venta is a stunning
outdoor Museum and park in which
visitors can view centuries-old almac
culture sculptures in 2018 two men
tourists from Indonesia were taken into
custody after damaging 15 of these
sculptures by pouring oil all over them
15. it's difficult to know why anyone
would do this but thankfully these two
idiots were caught number 5. azalea
trees liangshan China the Sichuan
province of China is home to an
incredibly beautiful Bloom of azalea
trees and idyllic scenery because of
this thousands of tourists flocked to
the area in their cars blocking local
traffic and life that's not the worst
part however the tourists can't just
look with their eyes aside from the
trash left everywhere tourists have been
known to uproot and steal the Azalea
trees tear the branches off to get
better pictures and even use the Azalea
branches to start barbecue fire pits
azalea trees can only grow 2 800 feet
above sea level atop mountains and are
thus delicate to begin with these are
Earthly Wonders that will rapidly
disappear with continued barbaric
behaviors and by the way smoking don't
apparently it wilts the azaleas number
four the duckbill rock formation Oregon
U.S the duck bill was a Sandstone Rock
in Cape kiwanda State Natural Area in
Oregon U.S it was an ancient hoodoo
formation which is basically a tall thin
Spire naturally resembling a duck's head
hence its nickname the key word here is
was as it's no longer there in 2016 a
group of teenagers decided to topple the
formation over destroying it
the search is on today for these
Knuckleheads who toppled an iconic rock
formation over the years the structure
had become weakened from the Abundant
amount of visitors climbing it so the
park had erected a fence around it to
avoid tourist contact claiming to be
doing the park a public service to avoid
accidents sure the teens pushed the rock
until it collapsed and shattered kind of
just like laughed it off took it with
pride that they destroyed something
magnificent and then just kind of
disappeared right after number three the
hot springs Yellowstone National Park
Wyoming Yellowstone is known for its
impressive natural hot springs and many
a tourist has done stupid things in or
around them however this one is a slow
burn caused by a large number of
visitors morning glory is one of the
most famous Springs images from the
1940s show the spring in its former
glory pun intended with a tropical blue
hue hence its Floral name however recent
photos show the spring is now a dark
green edged with yellow and orange
guests started complaining of a strange
colored water and also a foul odor this
has been proven recently to be due to
the Abundant amount of pennies rocks and
general trash tourists throw into
Morning Glory if your penny wish was to
ruin a stunning natural phenomenon
congratulations
number two seven U.S national parks U.S
social media has really led to some
moronic behavior in the past decade or
so don't Instagram that over 26 days in
the fall of 2014 23 year old Casey knock
it defaced government property in seven
U.S national parks with her graffiti
which consisted of her mediocre artwork
and Instagram handle she claims to have
done so quote in the name of art but
that's a little hard to believe given
the social media info provided knock it
even bragged about using acrylic paint
and when an Instagram user told her it
would be difficult to wipe off Rock she
replied I know I'm a bad person due to
said info she was quickly tracked down
and caught by authorities knock it was
subsequently sentenced to two years
probation and is banned from all
government-owned parks

number one the pyramids and the Sphinx
Egypt arguably the most recognizable
tourist attractions the Egyptian
pyramids and the Sphinx are subject to
decline due to massive amounts of
visitors there are some natural
phenomenon at work here such as breath
and humidity from tourists in abundance
doing damage to the ancient structure
walls however there is of course a human
stupidity element as well once again
people can't just use their eyes
tourists have been known to chip away at
the rocks on the attractions to get
souvenirs as well as flat out steel
parts of artifacts and illegally climb
the structures in 2013 the Temple of
Luxor was defaced by a teenage tourist
who wrote the classic so and so was here
on ancient Egyptian artwork Bravo
