A huge metal pillar that mysteriously appeared in the great Utah desert in the United States was discovered and immediately became an internet celebrity, but within a week it strangely disappeared.
The US Bureau of Land Management stated that, according to reliable sources, the object had been removed by “unidentified persons.”
Pictures taken of the scene on social media are believed to have shown that only a pile of stones and a small piece of metal remain where the giant metal pillar was.
This huge metal pillar, about 3.7 meters high, was discovered a few days ago and instantly became an American Internet celebrity. Everyone is wondering who really inserted such a huge metal pillar into the desert land, and if few people even went on a “pilgrimage” in the Red Rock desert area.
Come wuying
On November 18, when Utah Wildlife Conservation staff drove a helicopter to record the numbers of bighorn antelopes in the red rock desert area of southeastern Utah, they found this strange metal pillar from the air and landed on the nearby ground for a closer look.
Subsequently, the Utah Department of Public Safety released news about the giant metal pillar, immediately sparking a discussion on social media. Many people speculated that it could be some kind of modern art sculpture.
But until now, no one or organization has admitted to installing this metal pillar.
Go without a trace
A helicopter pilot in Utah told the local radio station that he had only been to the location of the giant metal pillar the day before, and his friend went there the next day and found that the metal pillar was missing.
The Utah Bureau of Land Management stated that the department did not remove the giant metal pillar that was considered personal property.
“Crimes involving personal belongings do not belong to our administrative authority. It is the job of the local police department.”
Many people posted photos of the giant metal pillar’s location on social media, leaving only a pile of stones and a small piece of metal in place.
A series of questions
When the Utah Department of Public Safety announced the discovery of the metal pillar, it did not reveal the specific location because it was concerned that explorers would be dangerous or get trapped while trying to search.
But the more mysterious the thing is, the more curious it is. Although there is no specific location information, it cannot stop people’s curiosity. Netizens with magical powers still searched for the GPS coordinates of the metal column and found the location successfully.
But the origin of this metal column remains an unknown secret.
Now he is “disappeared” and it is still unknown where he will go.
Bret Hutchings, the helicopter pilot who discovered the column, speculated that the metal column could be a masterpiece of “certain New Wave artists” or a fan of the 1968 American film “2001: A Space Odyssey.” Imitation works.
In the Stanley Kubrick-directed film, highly civilized alien species created the black slate.
Officials said this metal pillar may be an art installation, but it is illegal to install it on public land, “no matter what planet you come from, it’s the same.”
