Lawn mower tied to a pole at the yard cuts grass on its own

One enterprising homeowner has tied a lawn mower to a pole in the center of his yard so that it will trim grass on its own as it moves around, according to this article. A user from Reddit developed the idea and deactivated the machine’s engine kill lever. The owner of the equipment may have devised the concept to get out of lawn mowing chores, but this idea is not advisable for others, the article notes.
