Man floats television down river on a spa cover barge

We come across some pretty random things on the social networks, especially twitter, where people seem to always be battling with aggressive hot tub covers that smash them in the face, or dealing with storms where their cover blows off and crashes through the neighbor’s fence. But this is a first for us – check out this guy, paddling his big screen television down a river, using a hot tub cover for a floating barge.

I’m surprised he can maneuver it without sinking, or having the precious tv fall into the swamp water. We hope he was able to make it to his destination, and would love to interview him about this little adventure. Leave it to the Australians to up the ante when it comes to bizarre behavior like this.
