25 Times Tourists Decided To Do the Most Stupid Things! (2 of 5)

Graffiti at the Colosseum

Scribing messages on the walls of ancient monuments isn’t just a teenage thing. This 42-year-old tourist from Russia carved the letter K on a wall of colosseum that is well over two thousand years old! The authorities concluded that the carving was quite notable even from far and ordered him to pay a fine of twenty thousand euros!

“Green” colored hot spring because of coins thrown by tourists

The Morning Glory hot spring in Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming turned green from blue after tourists started throwing coins, as apparently, it brought good luck! Ironically, the same people are referring to this spring pool as Fading Glory instead of Morning Glory. Seriously?!

Chasing Tibetan Antelopes for pictures

A group of seven tourists decided to chase the Tibetan Antelopes (endangered species according to IUCN) in two SUVs just to click some pictures! And the chase didn’t stop at any point. They went ahead and broke into the protected area of Selincro National Reserve in order to get closer to the animals.

Thankfully, one person was smart enough to film the entire episode on the camera, which allowed the authorities to identify and later arrest the culprits. The group of tourists was only released after each of them paid fifteen thousand yuans as fine!

Azalea Tree Branches for BBQ

Azalea trees in Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture are loved by tourists from around the world. However, some weren’t just content with looking at these beautiful and rare trees. Instead, they plucked the flowers and broke the branches, and made use of them to cook barbeque! And if that wasn’t enough, they even uprooted the trees’ trunk!

The messiest beach you’d ever come across!

The Margate beach in the United Kingdom was converted into a messy place after tourists left behind all the plastic bottles, plates, and other stuff after a party. The waste was left behind by around five hundred people, so you can imagine the quantity of waste left there! The chief of the District Council termed the incident extremely disappointing.
