Angle Grinder
September 18, 2003 — 6:30 am

Talk about direct action

A man dressed in a Superman-style costume is roaming the streets of London freeing wheel-clamped cars with an angle grinder.

The caped individual, who calls himself Angle Grinder Man is already said to have freed a dozen vehicles in the south east of the city.

He doesn’t charge for the service, although drivers clamped still have to pay the parking fine.

He’s bought himself a £120 grinder and set up the Angle Grinder Man website which even has a call out number for clamped drivers.

“I got so angry, I went to a hire shop, got an angle grinder and sawed the clamp off. People were standing around cheering me – it was fantastic. Before I returned the tool, I took a picture of myself with the wheel clamp and stuck it in my car window with a note saying, ‘Don’t clamp me – I have an extremely sensitive nature'”.

What do you all think about this?
