That incident, in fact, is what renewed people's hope and encouraged them not to have themselves flayed after all. Now Un-Tree Hill has become the site of an annual Skin Salvation Remembrance Day Parade. The parade drew an audience of 50,000 Auckland residents when it was first held last January. Many of them were among the most grief-stricken, who were reminded, by this vandal's heroism, that sometimes even the most reprehensible individuals among us are capable of great works of goodness.
