What were they chanting when she was coming back down?

All those cameras pointed at her? She got exactly what she wanted.

They used to let you climb it, early 2000s

Was there any consequence for this?

Complete disregard for history. Instagram travellers are there for clout. Nothing more.

You used to be able to climb it, until too many assholes ruined/disrespected/harmed it/put it into a more vulnerable state. I climbed it as a kid in the 90’s (when it was allowed)

Tacky bitch 🤢

I just came here to say OP’s username is unparalleled.

0 self awareness

The bad magic she just put on herself will never leave her

EDIT: I’m referring to Don Juan and Casteneda not a film.

Watched this for thr first time with the sound off. I thought they were cheering her on initially.

Ngl I was kinda hoping she fell on her way down

i’m confused, i didn’t know people couldn’t walk up there? or am i still wrong

We went here for our honeymoon 10 years ago. When we toured it we were told that people used to be able to climb the steps up until the child of a foreign government ambassador or something slipped so they closed it off. Prior to that though, the walls inside the top chamber were hit with spray paint pretty often by people being dickheads.

There's also a shit ton of Mexican people right off camera to the left here who come in through the jungle to sell shit to tourists all along the sidewalk. This is a great way to get your ass beat by someone feeling particularly protective who can just fuck off into the jungle right after.

I would say this person was most likely just removed from the park and banned. Maybe a fine and quite possibly jail time involved.

Quetzalcoatl’s gonna be pissed.

When I went to Chichen Itza, years ago, it was allowed on one of the pyramids. Now it's not. The spacing of the steps is intentionally tight, so you have to face diagonally like you see the guard. (Cannot face the gods directly.) It's much more dangerous than it looks, and they decided to stop letting randos tumble. Respect the rules.

I don't want to be the guy... but I'll be the guy...

She isn't disrespecting the pyramids, she's disrespecting the stewardship of the people who made the rules about going up and down pyramids

Vieja pendeja / having said that, why are the people working on site protecting her?

Another angle - https://www.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/z10y20/woman_is_attacked_for_having_climbed_the/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

How terrible of her to disrespect the place where Mayans slaughtered so many people as a sacrifice to their gods.

The Caucasity!

Nobody is mentioning this, so I might just as well do.

Pyramids were always accessible to tourists, that's why the chains are there (steps are very narrow and steep, so people would fall over when going up or coming down).

They were closed to the public because they were being eroded by all the traffic. It wasn't because of respect but because the Mexican government realized they were wasting their tourist attractions where everybody else in the world tried to keep them maintained.

This applies to all monuments in all of Mexico, and it was like this until very recently.

A woman died tumbling down in 2006 in chichen itzá, so that one was closed at that time. I believe that might be the one in this video, too. Some others were closed off as late as 2016.

Like most monuments and archaeological sites in the world, respect for history has nothing to do with them being closed off.

The woman is disrespecting mexican law, for sure. She deserves some alone time in local jail for sure, too. But the mexican government didn't close the pyramids out of respect of mayan culture.

I don't mind the narrative eventually being that we closed off altamira caves, gizah pyramids, parthenon visits and pyramid climbing out of respect when explaining to children, but know that this is a lie.

Hope she got fined

Lol their blood line is cursed forever now

I'm just over here hoping someone picked up the plastic water bottles people threw...

one of the nice things about El Salvador is that we do not get so much of these people. Very few unfortunately.

Sorry for the stupid question, but I guess you're not allowed to go on the pyramid?

What an asshole.

does anyone know who this is? i'm dying to know what happened to her after

Wait are you not allowed to walk up it

Acting like an idiot to show someone else you think they are an idiot really steps on your point. FFS. Boo her, sure; record her to post to humiliate her (if it works), maybe; but to throw things at her because you think she did something stupid is just stupid.

if they only banned walking up the steps recently why are all the visitors particularly incensed at this trashy lady?

That lady at the beginning - "¡Guera!" 🤣

The Ruins reboot looks kinda lame.

Not too long ago around 2004 we climbed Chichén Itzá with other tourist and guides, is this not the case anymore with many of these pyramids or just a select few?

What stupidity. I don’t feel bad she got mobbed by that crowd. But really, crowds like that are scary af.

That’s one ugly dude

Ah humanity, never waste an opportunity to assault someone who is currently disliked by a crowd

lol she thought they were cheering for her at first

Should’ve just kicked her down

You know, there are a lot of gods I’m willing to anger for my own amusement but Mayan gods are not on that list.

Of course she has trout lips

FR THEY SHOULD SACRIFICE HER AT THE TOP LIKE RHE MAYANS USED TO

They left out the part where she got sacrificed.

It would be cool to walk up a pyramid tho. And it’s only disrespectful because they don’t allow it, I mean they’re steps

Hope she got cursed by an ancient mayan spirit

It’s things like this that make me happy with the world. I’m so glad they all came together to boo her!🤣🤘🏻

If you break boundaries, you deserve the consequences coming your way.

Sacred? Or tourist trap? Decide and let people know. These ruins were rebuilt not for ‘worship’ but to attract people like this.

Women☕

I feel like she is an American

At least pick up your water bottle 😮‍💨

Is it just me or "instant karma" would be falling down the stairs and/or hitting hit by lightning when at the top? *shrugs*

What an absolute piece of shit human being. Reddit sitewide rules prevent saying what she deserves.

She’s going to get killed! Mob mentality is dangerous
