Five life-weary cyclists pedal through the Brienz restricted area
Today, Tuesday, another particularly large block broke away from the crumbling slope above Brienz GR. The images from the cameras installed by Blick show a boulder thundering down to the meadow. Experts estimate its volume at several dozen cubic meters. This results in a weight of well over 50, perhaps even 100 tons.
A little later, a person rides past on a bicycle a few hundred meters below the place where the giant boulder has come to rest. "Gross recklessness" comments the municipality of Albula/Alvra on Twitter.The Blick cameras show the crash of the giant boulder. And also the person who rolls past underneath a little later. The boulder is easily recognizable behind a fir tree. The municipality tweeted the two events around an hour apart.
Filmed and caughtAccording to the municipal management team, several people went on a bike tour through the restricted area of Brienz at the weekend. No one was physically harmed. However, they were all caught by the police and reported to the police.
The motivation of these cycle tourists is unknown. It is part of human nature to be sure that a possible disaster will not befall you. But to believe that you can ride with impunity through a restricted area where every inch is monitored by cameras requires a somewhat more pronounced loss of reality.Note: This content has been automatically translated from German.
