Australians aren't happy with three tourists who ignored pleas not to climb Uluru and became stuck atop the iconic landmark, sparking a costly, 11-hour rescue mission.
The three Australian men, all believed to be aged 23, were climbing the iconic monument on Monday when they strayed off the path and became stuck in a crevice.
Specialist vertical climbers with the Northern Territory emergency services team reached the trio about midnight and brought them safely to the ground about 3.30am on Tuesday.
Many Aussies took to social media to mock and condemn the tourists, who went ahead with their climb despite pleas from local Anangu people to stay off Uluru.
They were branded "idiots", with many commentators suggesting they should have been left on the rock.
