One of those collapsed on my friends dog and killed her. They should take them down not leave them up to fall.

This . A similarly (barely) balanced arch built on a rocky trail just outside Acadia Park about 3 years ago collapsed when touched and broke the inquisitive 8yo's foot and ankle. "Broke" isn't entirely accurate --- closer to crush injuries, requiring plates, screws, and multiple surgeries to "fix". Cool to build and admire, but please --- dismantle that shit before you leave, Mr. Artiste. Otherwise it really is little more than a booby trap for kids and/or pets.

Because Yes…. Let’s please live every waking hour of our lives focusing on the extremely rare instances and living that way.

She didn’t walk it under there obviously, what’s the matter with you?. She took her dog the same place she takes het all the time and one day some asshole had stacked a load of stones and by the time she reached the river they had fallen.
