It was on November 18 that a group of rangers discovered the strange freestanding metal object when they were in a helicopter to count thick horn sheep in the area. Something flashed and one of the biologists on board yelled at the pilot that they had to turn around.

After landing on it inaccessible desert area, they could see that someone built a metal monolith about three meters high in a small ravine.

When the incident became known, there was a lot of speculation and the images of the films taken by the rangers were disseminated on social media and news sites around the world.

But authorities were concerned that onlookers who wanted to get there might get lost in the desert and cause trouble, so the exact position of the monolith was kept secret.

But it would only be two days before the first stranger took his selfie on the spot and disappeared on Friday. Apparently without a trace.

Now it has turned out that the monolith he was crushed and expelled from the scene by a group that deemed him “garbage,” writes the Reuters news agency.

The incident was documented by photographer Ross Bernards, who had gone there to photograph it. On his Instagram page, he describes what happened next:

“I had just taken pictures of the monolith in the moonlight and was about to take a break to change the batteries and plan a drone flight when we heard voices a little further away. Four guys turned the corner and two of them stepped forward and gave the monolith a shove. One of them told us: ‘You better have received your photos.’ Then he gave her a proper shove and then began to lean in. Then he yelled to the others that no tools were needed. Another said that ‘that’s why you shouldn’t leave trash in the desert’ and the four pushed him until he was almost on the ground. In the end, it landed on the ground with a bang. “

“They broke it quickly and they began to carry the pieces to a wheelbarrow that they had with them. One of them turned around and said, “Leave no trace.”

It had all taken eight minutes.

Ross Bernards then describes how the next day he saw many curious people arrive at the place. In vain looking for what they came to see.
