It's particularly funny because Stonehenge is almost entirely a reconstruction and not a partially destructive one at that. Iirc there are even legit photos of the henge stones in piles on the ground.

Ed: you can down vote but it's true, it's been continually knocked down and rebuilt throughout its history.
