Terrible idea poorly executed. Whoda thunk a 15 meter (approx. 45 feet for us silly Americans) metal monument with more metal connecting it on TOP of a mountain could be a problem. smh

I feel bad for the people. They may not have been religious, but religion killed 'em.

Hope it came down at least. It’s bad enough when people leave trash all over the place but destroying the natural beauty of a place with man made structures is evil, especially when it’s religious trash

How sad. This is tragic, not a reason for laughing.

While I appreciate the irony of this, the article states that over 100 people were injured in this event. The electrical current traveled over metal handrails and chains, affecting many people in the area. That's sad no matter how ironic the cause.

Wow!

Who the hell puts a giant lightening rod atop a mountain? Should be charged with manslaughter, at a mnimum,and executed before they "contribute" to the gene pool, for sure!
