Curse of the Uluru

 Ayers Rock in Australia is said to be under a potent and powerful aboriginal curse, known as the curse of the Uluru. A Canberra man named Steve Hill didn't believe in the curse and during a tourist visit took a particular rock that caught his eye to add to his collection. Thus began the curse of Uluru.

On his way back home through Queensland, furious kangaroos began hurling themselves at his vehicle causing thousands of dollars worth of damage. A shaken Hill commented, "I've driven extensively through the outback and never seen such behavior from kangaroos. It was at that point I started to think maybe I shouldn’t have taken the rock and that maybe I’d fallen victim to the curse."

However, Steve's ill fortune had only just begun. Not long after, during another trip through Queensland, his car began, "blowing blue smoke and then blew up." But the mechanics could find nothing wrong with it whatsoever. 

Hill began to fill a constant state of nervous tension and anxiety. One day, the photos he had taken of his trip to Ayers Rock vanished, this was what finally convinced him to return the stolen stone. Once the rock was placed in its rightful place, Hill's life returned to normal.

Many others have experienced this dreaded jinxing. Countless rocks have been returned to the site often accompanied by apology notes.
