Mysterious Georgia Guidestones brought down after heavy damage from explosion (all gone now)
Washington Examiner ^ | 7-6-22 | Brady Knox

Following extensive damage from an apparent explosive device, the mysterious Georgia Guidestones have been brought down. The structure was damaged early Wednesday morning in an apparent act of vandalism.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation stated at noon that around 4 a.m. on Wednesday morning, "unknown individuals" detonated an explosive device that destroyed a "large portion" of the mysterious structure.

A video taken by SKYFOX showed that one of the four pillars of the structure had been completely destroyed, damaging the granite slab it was supporting.

(1/3) The GBI and Elbert County Sheriff’s Office are investigating an explosion that destroyed the Georgia Guidestones near Elberton, GA.

The preliminary information indicates that unknown individuals detonated an explosive device at around 4:00 a.m. on Wednesday, July 6th.

By 5:16 p.m., an image shared on Twitter by journalist Myra Ruiz showed the remnants of the Guidestones torn down by a construction crew. The reason for the toppling of the remaining three monoliths is not yet clear.

The hubris in that idiotic advice is huge. Hey, everyone, be reasonable.

The Guidestones had cameras to record vandalism because of earlier defacing of the structure. If there is any useful images, the perps will be caught.

Even with its Utopian message, it attempts to communicate universal aspirations even though people like me would not go along with all of them:

Here is what is written on the Georgia Guidestones:

1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
2. Guide reproduction wisely — improving fitness and diversity.
3. Unite humanity with a living new language.
4. Rule passion — faith — tradition — and all things with tempered reason.
5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.
6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.
7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials.
8. Balance personal rights with social duties.
9. Prize truth — beauty — love — seeking harmony with the infinite.
10. Be not a cancer on the earth — Leave room for nature — Leave room for nature.

There is a light in the upper middle-right of the video, it looks like a street light. But then it flashes brightly just as the monument blew up. It’s almost like someone fired a bazooka at it or maybe an RPG.

It’s really noticeable if you go frame by frame.

Click the settings icon and reduce the play speed. Youtube and Rumble both have .25 speed. Bitchute only goes to .5

PS, it was lightening.

” But .... Any chance that there were explosives embeded inside one of the stones by the creator and was timed to go off on a certain date?”

From 1980? That’d be one good battery on the timer.

Interesting video claiming proof a lightning strike blew up the guidestone. All the more better if this were true.

There appears to be a flash to the left of the stones, just before the blast.

There’s another video out there that argues it was a lightning strike.I

I saw it said that lightening can hit stone and explode it if it contains moisture.

The guidestones were granite. I don't think granite absorbs moisture.

So video shows the explosion and a car speeding away, but doesn’t show anyone placing explosives at the stones? Did the cameras fail at that one important moment?

Heck, I’d be speeding away as well, if I was parking there with my boyfriend and there was suddenly an explosion such as that. I’d be screaming, “Oh crap, it’s my dad and his shotgun! Didn’t he warn you?”

Yes. It's possible from what little we can see from the truncated video, that the car was unrelated. There are many cars that look more or less like that one. I don't know which make and model it was, but there was that ridge in the middle of the roof of it in the video. Looked like a late model.

I don't think it was lightning. In regards to the flash reflection, light travels faster than debris. The flash was caused by the detonation of whatever device was used.
