💀 Superstition at 17,000 ft ❌

At 17,000 feet on the Manali–Leh highway, thousands of plastic bottles are “offered” to quench a spirit’s thirst.
If you don’t, bad luck will follow — or so the story goes.

The same thing happens in a village in Gujarat — different legend, same outcome: piles of plastic waste.

People know it’s harmful, yet they keep doing it. Why?
🧠 Illusory correlation – Mistaking coincidence for truth.
🧠 Confirmation bias – Ignoring evidence that doesn’t fit the belief.
🧠 Bystander effect – “Everyone’s doing it, my one bottle won’t matter.”

We choose immediate comfort over long-term damage… and in the name of stories, the environment pays the price.

Superstition? Or madness?
