Man Uses Crane and Lawn Mower to Trim His Hedges

Well, if he didn't have hedge clippers, then he had no alternative. Two men (who prefer that their names be kept confidential) in Cambridge, New Zealand hauled a lawnmower into the sky with a crane in order to trim a hedge:

The man had expected a real hedge trimmer to turn up on Sunday to mow the hedge, but when he didn't his mate arrived with his crane and a ride-on mower.

The next thing he knew he was being hoisted up on top of the two-metre high hedge.

"We were supposed to get all dressed up in our Mooloo gear and show people that this is how the Waikato boys mow their hedges."

The unusual sight bemused passing motorists. One passer-by, Bart Dinger, said it was a classic case of Kiwi ingenuity.

"A kiwi classic – jandals and all," he said.


One of the pair is being treated for a broken hand that resulted from the stunt.

This is absolutely hilarious. A broken hand as the only injury is lucky though. I haven't laughed as hard as I just did in a LONG time. Thanks for the laughs.

but i bet you'd have all jeered when we invented the electric fence, and the sealed road, and the english spoken language with only one vowel!
