"Slane is less sympathetic to the monolith — which, DPS officials noted, was placed without authorization on federal land. “It is illegal, destructive to the rock, and potentially disruptive to the Big Horn Sheep if it becomes a trend,” he says. Unusual or photogenic natural landscapes, including Antelope Canyon just south of Utah, have suffered when tourists descended on them. “Hopefully the [Bureau of Land Management] or National Park Service send out a crew to take it down.”"
If they do remove it we might have more information on how it was constructed. Or the removal crew will be teleported back to our distant past!

I think the guy is going to extremes just because he apparently doesnt like this thing...its NOT 'destructive' to rocks or animals LOL.
And I doubt it will become a tourist attraction, not much to see!
I will say though, if anything weird happens if they try to remove it...we will never hear a word about it.

If you looked at SFX's link you would see that Google knows everything. We could see if it was removed or if there are scorch marks on the rock where the demolition crew stood!
It’d be nice to see an analysis of the metal composition and also to get the density/volume as well as how it was planted in the ground but I’m sure it will be confiscated by the government and we will not hear a peep about it.
What I find interesting is that it sat there undiscovered for 5-6 years already. It could have sat there for 20 years just as easily being unseen. That doesn't sound like a good way to get publicity for a movie or any other current event.
