In the video, two men and a woman were walking on the surface of Danxia rock. There was also a man filmed outside the video. He kicked the sand on the surface of the rock with barefoot, and said, "I destroyed the sand that has been six thousand years ago" and "It's so cool to come secretly."
It is understood that the person involved once posted the video on the online platform and said: "It's not that there is news that one step is to take 60 years to recover. We didn't know that we stepped on many steps, and I even got sand." Then, the netizen uploaded the video again and said, "We don't need to give tickets to the back mountain we went to, it's even better than the ones who gave tickets."
