A South Carolina man started collecting tires to sell to China, to the tune of 250k, and tossing them in one gigantic pile on his sprawling 50-acre property.

However, now that China is not so interested in all that rubber, he and the environment are stuck with way too many Goodyears and Michelins. Officials say a $400 littering fine is hardly enough to deal with the problem.
