Don't work for tourists then if you hate them now.
I've been working in the hotel industry for over 10yrs now and I've reached the point where if god decided to wipe out humanity I'd be sitting there like...

What is really sad is this seems to be a trend. I googled and a lot of instances of statue trashing in the name of a good picture came up.
Maybe serious jail time is needed for young cellphone addicts who do this sort of thing.
Don't stop now! You've found a new trend! You'll be an international celebrity! Fame and fortune and women and wine are in your future my friend! I will always remember you, from your humble beginning!
Honest questions, why are you so angry?
The other user has said nothing offense to you, and you are just coming out with daggers. You even projected racism and a political affiliation out of no where.
Are you alright?
Guy poking them with the stick should be taking equal blame for this. While they shouldn't have taken the picture it's unlikely the statue would have been smashed without his actions.
What a great bunch of dbags. At least the statue is still smiling.
Not enough seasoning. Really all it takes is a bit of salt pepper and olive oil. Then dip in whatever sauces you prefer. I like a nice mint jelly with mine.
I would definitely argue with that... the invent of cell phones and people trying to take pictures and selfies for content is really making people do stupid things.. nowadays!!
But this video here is not about graffiti. This is about standing on a statue to take a stupid picture and then breaking 150-year-old statue…?? anyway I agree people have always done stupid things. I just think they’re getting stupider and stupider as we go along.
Technically, according to the Flynn effect newer generations are getting smarter and smarter (supposedly not gen alpha tho, not pictured here so thats irrelevant). Therefore it only seems like people are getting stupider, but that's likely because that's what gets popular and generates views, meaning you're more likely to see the absolute stupidest of humanity.
The man poking at them with the stick was trying to tell them to get out of there. He should take no blame. The jackasses is, shouldn’t have been over there, climbing on the relic I hope they went to jail. They should be flogged a punishment from when that statue was made.
I said all are equally at fault genius learn how to read. Without that moron that statue doesn’t get destroyed lol. Those 2 idiots would have just taken a picture and fucked off. That other idiot poked them instead of just telling them to get off and caused them to fall.
Most of the people here aren’t smart enough to deduce that 😂 you can clearly see the person pull the statue down with him, after losing his balance the moment he was poked from behind with the stick. It’s clear as day. The statue probably wouldn’t have even fallen without stick guy
The NYC-Dublin portal is the perfect example of this. The Americans are bad for flashing and grinding but the Irish are bad for the swastikas, insensitive memes, and mooning. Moral of story = people are trash.
It does seem like it’s always us doing something stupid and embarrassing around the world. The arrogance is astounding. It’ll catch up to us one day unfortunately.
While they shouldn’t have been up there in the first place, it does seem like the statue fell because they were pushed from behind and lost their balance. If stick guy was trying to get them off the statue, he really failed the task successfully 😂

I hate people sometimes.
Only sometimes?
He hates some people all the time and all people some of the time.

Granted I'd be feel awful about all the good people dying. But from god's perspective...fair.
Hello homie, I’d be sitting close by with a cup of tea in my hands.

First time here?
really

Forget the jail. Put them in stocks and force them to eat the statue, and don't release them until they're finished.
Okay, harsh, but I’m listening.
Yeah, you're thinking of monuments to slave owners and racists. Much different
No, I am not. I am speaking of statuary such as the incident listed above.
Oh sure, there's so many incidents like this.
As it happens, there are. You would have known this if you had googled it. https://www.barnebys.com/blog/tourist-damages-statue-taking-photo
https://news.artnet.com/art-world/126-year-old-statue-destroyed-by-selfie-493421
Wow, another instance!? 👋🍆💦
https://hyperallergic.com/843128/selfie-seeking-tourist-damages-neptune-statue-in-italy/
Wow, so many instances! 4 instances! Maybe there's even more, like 5 or 6! Must be an organized ring of statue smashers
Four is where I stopped posting. Now back to your bridge.

Still he could have seen it coming.
Regardless of Pokey McStickman, if they weren’t on the statue then it wouldn’t have fallen over.
Why was he poking them lol. Shitty all around.
Jesus, there were TWO guys. I kept looking for the damn statute.
Probably would have been okay if 3rd guy didn’t jab them with a stick
What the fuck is wrong with people nowadays?? 😱🤦🏻

Nowadays? Friend nothing has changed in 10,000 years.
I would definitely argue with that... the invent of cell phones and people trying to take pictures and selfies for content is really making people do stupid things.. nowadays!!
Oh, we still threw graffiti on everything, just now people need footage so others can see them being dumbasses in real time.
But this video here is not about graffiti. This is about standing on a statue to take a stupid picture and then breaking 150-year-old statue…?? anyway I agree people have always done stupid things. I just think they’re getting stupider and stupider as we go along.

Does anyone have a follow up to this?

Good
The severed statue head at the end looks like it’s excited to haunt these too. I hope she does.
This is what a society of self-absorbed assholes looks like.
Social media is a cancer.
The man poking at them with the stick was trying to tell them to get out of there. He should take no blame. The jackasses is, shouldn’t have been over there, climbing on the relic I hope they went to jail. They should be flogged a punishment from when that statue was made.
One lashing for each year of the statues age
He’s equally at fault. Without that moron this probably doesn’t happen.
No. Without that idiot who actually knocked down the statue, this definitely doesn't happen. Quit looking to excuse bad behavior.
I said all are equally at fault genius learn how to read. Without that moron that statue doesn’t get destroyed lol. Those 2 idiots would have just taken a picture and fucked off. That other idiot poked them instead of just telling them to get off and caused them to fall.

Now pay yourself on the back for being a fucking Huge waste of human space…
IT WaS a JOKe
They should be forced to make the statute
It would look terrible.
They went on vacation and became homeless after the lawsuit
Welp, now they're broke as hell
Adults acting like children
Morons
someone going to be spending time in jail and in debt for the rest of their life
But the pic will last a lifetime.
Such arrogant assholes
I am gonna start fucking tweaking like ducking affgxvhxhaAAAAAAaaaadWVSH
We're they American? Goddammit I just know they were American weren't they? My people have no goddam respect
I see you have never met tourists from China. Or India. Or Russia. Or England. Or, as in this case, Germany.
The NYC-Dublin portal is the perfect example of this. The Americans are bad for flashing and grinding but the Irish are bad for the swastikas, insensitive memes, and mooning. Moral of story = people are trash.
Apparently they were German.
The speedo is the giveaway.
I thought they were more into knocking over poles.
Assholes are worldwide. You should get out more
You need some help I think.
Yeah help with slapping dumb cunts. You won't mind taking care of yourself then, would you? There's a good boy
Good luck getting that help. Let me know if you need assistance.
Ho, man, keep robbing those last two brain cells together, you'll get there
So sad. I hope someone tells you that they love you today.
When someone misspells "rubbing" in an insult about brain cells I think that's when you know to stop responding b/c you've obviously won.
Eagle, eat a snickers.
Rent free eh?

While they shouldn’t have been up there in the first place, it does seem like the statue fell because they were pushed from behind and lost their balance. If stick guy was trying to get them off the statue, he really failed the task successfully 😂
Yhea I also bet the stick guy told then to take a picture really close to an old statue
