Yeah but the hippie surfers living in the bush in that area do way more damage to the environment than that silly stunt did.

By Zeus what sort of jackassery is this!

What did it really do though? Burnt a log?

I watched the video before it was taken down. They poured a flammable substance(i would guess about a later of gas) on a log and lit it on fire and and at the end one of the "bro's" ate a dead salmon smolt that looked like it had been dead for a while.

Oh

A miniscule fraction of what ends up in the water every single day at every single marina. Went in there with some family to camp a few years ago, turned around and left, "pristine" is hilarious it was a dump.

And then blame all the environmental damage on previous generations just like we did
