Apparently a couple of morons thought it would be a good idea to climb the Tree of Life in Animal Kingdom the other day. What the heck is wrong with people?

Look, they were just really upset that they got rid of the Tarzan stage show so were trying to recreate it themselves!

In all seriousness it is ridiculous that someone would think that is ok - hope that parents were able to use it as a teaching moment to their kids ... though I worry others might see it and think "oh cool, they got to be internet famous so I should do that too!"

This is why we can't have nice things.

The worst part for me is the plural... that multiple people thought this was okay!

I suspect they were all together.

But why? Were they protesting or something?

Monkey-see, Monkey-do? I'm sure there's one on the tree (or at least a chimpanzee).

Wow! When I first saw this I was like why would you want to climb an old oil rig? Don't they know that really isn't a tree??? Seriously what is next? Climb the castle??

 

[Wubar]

Just plain stupid. Probably the type of half brains that would also sue Disney if they had fallen during their little joy-climb and hurt themselves in the process.

let's see ... we have this one, which covers Animal Kingdom, and we had someone climbing the front of the Mexican Pavilion in EPCOT - so need something in Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios to complete the quartet of idiots

 

[SorcererHeidi]

Either that, or maybe they'll just climb the Height of Stupidity?

I always love the view at the top of Splash Mountain!! It would be cool to get up there and sit a while, and it doesn't seem too difficult!

Splash could work - or Big Thunder (the kids did that in one of the Kingdom Keeper books ... they also got to the top of Space Mountain as well) .... guess the pinnacle would be the top of Cinderella Castle to check out where Tinkerbell flies from

In DHS, guess it would be Tower of Terror

Disney needs dungeons for this sort of thing...you know they'd be the coolest themed dungeons ever. Seriously though, I hope they're banned for at least 5 years. Gotta send a message with this sort of thing.

Could theme it to Robin Hood - have animatronics of all the townfolks that couldn't pay their taxes

Life and living probably

They are members of PETOR - People for the Ethical Treatment of Oil Rigs ... and think they should be allowed to live out their existence naturally, not turned into an abomination in some *shudder* theme park

I can now move on with my day. Nothing will beat this today. Thank you.
