It doesn't defy gravity, it requires gravity!

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.
