In a shocking video posted on Instagram, a man was caught throwing rocks at Utah's Valley of the Gods, and people are not happy.

The account Tourons of National Parks, which calls out foolish tourists, shared the clip, labeling the rock-thrower a "touron"—a mix of tourist and moron.

This dangerous act didn't just risk hurting others; it also harms nature. Similar incidents in West Virginia's New River Gorge National Park have led to injuries. Chucking rocks messes up the environment, causing erosion and hurting animals and plants.

It's crucial for tourists to learn how to treat nature right and protect the delicate balance of our ecosystems. This incident left Instagram users fuming, showing that folks are fed up with disrespect for our natural world.


The visceral response of anger was very strong in the comments on the video.

However, the comments from those who disagreed with his actions were in the majority, and some were even quite bloodthirsty.

The national park system has increased the number of locations with timed-entry visitor passes, as tourism to the parks has grown enormously since the COVID peaks of the past few years.

'70s Rock Star Sparks Heated Debate After Claiming That Taylor Swift Has 'Ruined Music'

Taylor Swift's new extended album The Life of a Showgirl: Encore has been even more poorly received than the original version last year, and you can count Todd Rundgren among those who aren't impressed.

Who the heck is that? The 78-year-old rocker had a slew of hits in the 1970s, including "Hello It's Me" and "I Saw The Light," and also produced some of the most important rock albums of the era.

According to U.S. Census Bureau Estimates, as of 2026, the estimated median age at first marriage in the United States is 30.8 years for men. That has changed over time as people are waiting longer to get married.

In 1975, the median age for men to marry for the first time was 23.5, by 2004 it had risen to 27.4, and by 2014 to 29.3. The steady increase over the decades was attributed to more people prioritizing completing their education and establishing their careers to become financially stable before marrying.
