The guy who threw the spear basically said he saw his opportunity for fun and took it. He also offered to pay back the owner of the drone, but the drone operator said the footage was payment enough basically.

But yeah i get it, drone bad and whatnot.

Yeah, drone bad. Dude did it for fun. 30 other people there probably weren't amused. But what are you going to do, start arguments with a drone operator?

The first article I could find literally says he did it out of annoyance. I'm finding some sources saying he did not expect to actually hit it. Granted I'm not finding a lot of info on this so if anyone here has some proper sources to share I'd also love to know the story and I can edit my comment if needed

I guess if he was pissed, he wouldn't completely admit to that after hitting the drone
