Stormtroopers Assemble a Christmas Tree

Kyle Shearrer didn’t just put his Christmas tree up. He and his father pulled out the Stormtroopers and gave them the job! In a series of 27 pictures, they unpacked and assembled the tree almost completely before Darth Vader arrived to inspect the work.

But like most projects, the real work was done by a small contingent, while the others goofed off under the pretense that they were “guarding” the work site. Keep your eye on the background, as one particularly dense Stormtrooper experiments with a fork in the electric outlet, while another gets in trouble for sleeping on the job. The background provides several subplots for the main tree chore. What they left at the top for the crowning ornament is a surprise you’ll have to check out for yourself.

You can click through larger pictures slideshow fashion at Facebook starting here. Shearrer said they tried to put a subtle joke into each image. -via reddit

The guy waving looked like a camper/hiker to me. Notice all his gear? He was probably just waving to call attention to himself and his gear - "don't run me over". Or maybe he was just lonely. Either way you don't normally hitch a lift on a dirt bike, escpecially carrying all that gear.

The Japanese text with the YT video says this is a part of the "old national highway No. 222", near Miyakojono in Miyazaki Prefecture. (Google Translate is your friend.)

It's not surprising either. The mountains of Japan are full of old roads and trails like this. When a landslide destroys a large piece of a road, they just build a new one elsewhere.

(Don't bother looking this up on English Wikipedia, the articles about the Japanese road system are poorly written and lacking in references. BTW, did you know that all the major divided highways in Japan are toll roads? They're expensive, too.)
