University removes wrecking ball landmark after students ride it nude a la Miley Cyrus

A landmark on Grand Valley State University's main campus has been removed, but is Miley Cyrus to blame?

Tuesday morning, a crew removed the giant pendulum sculpture from outside Padnos Hall of Science.

The steel ball, which hangs from a cable, resembles a wrecking ball. For years students had swung on it, but recently several students climbed on the ball naked, mimicking Miley Cyrus' video for "Wrecking Ball."

At least one student posted a vine video of his nude ode to Cyrus.
