 Mine your own business: Cambodian man gets flak for unusual yardIn most places, unusual or ugly lawn ornaments will get you a complaint from your HOA or a slap on the wrist. But no amount of pink flamingos and garden gnomes could ever compare to the decorations in one man’s yard in Cambodia. Authorities in the northwestern part of the country have come down on the homeowner for what they’re calling “dangerous and destructive” lawn decorations, which include numerous undetonated explosives and landmines left over from 20th-century conflicts. The items were collected from nearby fields and villages, and neighbors have claimed the homeowner acts as an amateur minesweeper in his free time. After collecting the mines, he hung them from trees surrounding his property, which puts them at an even greater risk of exploding and causing damage. After speaking with authorities, the man admitted to collecting them but explained his actions as a result of “not knowing what to do” with the explosives. Maybe he should have contacted an actual minesweeper. Alternatively, maybe they could just bring in this incredible, high-tech minesweeping vehicle. Tap or click here to see how technology is helping clear former battlefields of weaponry. → |
