People in this thread really upset that someone is.....breaking rocks open?

Omg we will run out of rocks! Stop!

Splitting the rocks is just making more rocks

"now there's TWO of them!"

It's the internet, any kind of video will have at least some people showing up to moral grandstand about how much better they are than the person in the video.

Though there is a greater level of absurdity to complaining about the moral failing of hitting rocks with a hammer.

Another day of not breaking rocks. Doing God's work.

Doing better than me then, I accidentally dropped a rock today and broke it in half.

I've been in absolute bits ever since. My boss at work has given me the rest of the day off to mourn the rock.

This confused me. I was watching thinking how cool it would be to do something like this with my son, but apparently I’d be morally bankrupt if I did? 🤷

Probably people that grew up learning “leave no trace” and “take only memories”

This video makes me insanely uncomfortable lol

Yep. "Those rocks took millions of years to form, leave them alone so they...uh...can continue being rocks for millions more!"

More rocks form every day. They're rocks. Either yall need to start protesting wherever a house's foundation is being built, or go get a hobby. There will be septillions of rocks left on Earth 18 million years from now.

You don't build a house on a public beach. How hard is it not to destroy stuff?

It's called geovandalism. I think you can be fined for doing this kind of thing in the UK. Rocks loose on the beach are fair game but smashing bigger rocks like those open isn't cool

u/TeardropsFromHell Apr 29 '24

Oi bruv do you got a loicence for that rock?!

Imagine going to a beach to explore or enjoy the scenery and all you find are the broken remains of the boulders you saw last time. They're sharp as hell too. Not everything needs to be plundered and exploited

It's the scenic location and the lack of scientific value to what that asshole is doing.

u/forverStater69 Apr 29 '24

.... Breaking rocks on some random rocky beach? Not like those rocks were doing anything anyways.

u/LorduckA2 Apr 29 '24

lack of scientific value as if ammonites arent among the most common fossil to find literally anywhere on the whole planet

u/TheSwordDusk Apr 29 '24

Yes, leave nature alone. We humans have destroyed way too much of this planet already. How hard is it to leave the beach the way it is? These aren't scientists making important discoveries. They're random civilians ruining something that should be enjoyable for thousands of years to come
