[‘Potato Chip’ Rock](https://imgur.com/a/A8DggB9) in San Diego, California is a popular tourist attraction that sees hundreds of people hiking out everyday to get their picture standing on it.
Normally photos like this would have me concerned about people destroying nature but it has been around for decades and for whatever reason it seems to be very strong.
What kind of rock is this and how is it so thin yet able to support hundreds of pounds of weight without breaking?

And right after the “thumbs up”, the rock breaks… sending this family sliding down the hill on a stone sled.
And the little boy screams :
” Now this is podracing! “
