After the video was posted online, it has been viewed 8.2 million likes. The video also has many likes and comments that only seem to be growing. Many people were not happy with the woman's actions.
One Twitter user commented, "I'm sure they the pyramids took a huge hit with all that foot traffic, and they had to change the rules to preserve it. People should respect that regardless of what country they're from. ALWAYS respect the people and lands you visit on your travels. You are a guest!" A second person added, "WOW. This is beyond disrespectful." A third person wrote, "Almost 30 years ago, we climbed the pyramid at Chichen Itza. Even then stairs were so worn and steep that my partner had a full-on panic attack trying to descend. Glad for the changes to preserve these irreplaceable monuments," said a third.
