A government who just got stolen some highway.
Iamhereforyourviewingpleasure
Lol he got just 800 usd for it.
cptwott
He got away with it.
LittleMit
I bet he broke it up and made foundation or bricks for a house or something to that effect.
WatermelonT
When new technology was being tested and they got lucky that only the road disappeared but they covered it by saying the chinese man did it.

On the other hand... How poor and desperate do you need to be to steal 800 meters of concrete.

He took the long road home, so he may pave his own path.

Nice road you got there. Would be a shame if something...happened to it. -Chinese guy
Fartknokerr
Can’t afford a driveway for your property no problem? I’ll just steal one
Xtrabored
Trouble is, 30 minutes later you want to steal another Chinese road.
amoxikillin
That's some Carmen Sandiego shit there.
sillycucumber
I mean, it's China, so are we sure that the road was there in the first place and they're just lying to save face?
TezuNii
It's China not the US, That road was probably stolen and replaced 10 times before they talked about it
Crawmak
mrputter
Just a guess, but I suspect it might've been for the money...

So you want the dirt on who took the road, eh? Well you better have a concrete reward! It took rocks to do what he did
DexterousDiscourses
He probably tried other avenues before deciding to commit the crime that changed the face of the earth

Actually, way back before they realized Nevada had a shitload of silver, they were mining gold in it and paving some towns with this 1/
TheBlueJelly
"worthless" black sand they were digging up. Then someone realized that black sand was silver. It went how you imagine. /2

No no, take your legs completely out of the equation. You want to fully use your back with a sharp, twisting motion.

Nevermind, google answered. His friend had some heavy machinery.

nobodylikesyouat23
that makes a lot of sense. he would need to dig 7ft per minute to clear it in 12 hours and it says over night so atleast 9ft per min to doit
UpvoteFairy3001
Thank you for doing the math for me
Wormbo2
That is some SERIOUSLY HEAVY machinery though. Even a 15t excavator, lifting the road in 10x6ft sheets would need a team of about 4 of them
Erutanmi
How’d you get 7ft per minute? 800m ~ 2400ft. 12hrs = 720mins. That’s 3.33ft/min.
nobodylikesyouat23
oh noooooooo i did it all wrong! fuck. some where in there i doubled it on accident
Erutanmi
No worries! I thought I was crazy bad at math because I’ve been out of school for too long. Cheers!
Mhgod
Ok so we have the how
SciencePetsComputers
Construction called for Filler materials that allow drainage, stuff like gravel, crushed stone, or crushed concrete. It's more expensive(1)
SciencePetsComputers
Then you would think. Ironically whoever bought this has a good chance of wanting to use it to put in another roads base.
Mhgod
Welp now my questions have been answered for the night, thank you Sir Cat

Red bull is to a bud light as coke/crystal is to everclear.

They'll take it but it's on you to dismantle and transport it. Cash on delivery.

I know of a stretch of road about 800m long in eastern China that recently found itself in need.

China even has people stealing lines off power lines. They have a big black market & many companies just do not care.
Herecomesjohnny
don't spin this to make china the big boogeyman again, there are people that steal bridges here in europe
needanamedammit
Copper line theft is a large problem in the US as well. that's not just a China thing.
TheFastpaws
Trying to compare the two is like comparing candy store theft to robbing a bank. China's problem is much worse.
Irreal
They should like electrify them to prevent theft

Also the UK.
