Among the green Yorkshire fields is an amazing geological monument - the balancing Stones of Brimham (Brimham Rocks). On 20 hectares are located the most bizarre shapes and sizes of the rock.

Balancing stones are geological formations that arose from erosion. Water, wind, ice and frost for 320 million years "corrected" the base of the rocks. Huge stone blocks practically float in weightlessness, balancing on "thin" legs.

But recently one of the iconic monuments was destroyed by a group of teenagers in just a few seconds. Pani and the girls deliberately pushed one of the blocks until it rolled off the cliff. Now the police began to investigate this incident.

This is not the only act of vandalism. Many tourists consider it simply necessary to write soya names on the most ancient rocks.
