After the Utah desert, California, Romania, Wright Island, and Belgium, a strange metal pole has appeared in Hungary as well, at the border of the 15th and 16th districts in a field mostly used as a dog run. The famous Hungarian meme face, András Arató, better known as ‘Hide the Pain Harold’, also took photos with the column.
The strange monolith pole first appeared in the United States, in the Utah desert, and then disappeared after a couple of days. This was followed by another sighting in California, but it was soon removed by a group of men as well. The monolith then arrived in Europe too: a similar one was found in Romania, Poland, and Belgium.
Now a similar pole has appeared in Hungary as well, on the border of the 15th and 16th districts, in a large, grassy field, bordered by the Rákospalotai határút and Szentmihályi street.

After being confronted with the whole world laughing at his photos, he decided to take the lead, and took on advertising roles and public appearances and is now consciously building his own online image as ‘Hide the Pain Harold.’
András Arató is possibly one of the most known Hungarians on the internet. But while in real life he is a well-known electric engineer, he became famous because of memes featuring him with a smile that the online world found simultaneously depressing and endearing: on the internet, Arató became “Hide the Pain Harold.” Interestingly, independently […]Continue reading

It is not yet known who is responsible for placing the strange metal poles in different parts of the world. The most likely assumption so far is that the first mysterious metal column may have come from a group of New Mexican artists. However, whoever made the first one, has quickly found followers in Europe as well.
