There are all kinds of ways to make people smile. You can tell jokes, offer free hugs, or, if you’re this guy, you build the world’s only road-legal wheelie bin.
Taxed and registered, the electric motor can propel the creation along England’s roads at 8 miles per hour.
Inventor Kevin Nicks says part of the reason he does what he does is “just to make people smile.”
“There’s a lot of negativity in the world one way or another at the moment, but what I try to do is bring some fun to people,” says the almost 60-year-old inventor.
He often drives with the lid open for safety reasons, although a series of mounted cameras allow to him drive with the lid closed for a real shock to passersby.
He had originally set out to make the world’s fastest lawnmower, but discovered that A: it had already been done, and B: the record was 140 miles per hour.

Setting his sights instead on the world record for fastest motorized wheelie bin, he discovered the record was held by a man who did it in honor of his friend who had terminal cancer.
So he decided to let the record stand and outfitted a slower model.
