True Stories of Mental Deceptions, Illustrated Through Pictures




realistic dummy hanging from roof with fallen ladder


Fom the original report (abridged)...

"I had to take him (the dummy) down after 2 days. First, the cops advised me that he would cause traffic accidents as they almost wrecked themselves when they drove by.

Second, a 55-year-old lady grabbed the 75 pound ladder and almost killed herself putting it against my house and didn't realize the dummy was fake until she climbed to the top (she was not happy). By the way, she was one of many people who attempted to do that.

Finally, my yard couldn't take the abuse. I received more-than-a-few tire tracks where people literally drove up my yard."
