Farmer Grows Robots - Paul Merton In China

Farmer Robot 01 Farmer Robot 02

Paul Merton, an English actor in a clip with Emma, his translator as they voyage across the communist state, exploring Chinese culture. Here, he meets a farmer with limited education who ‘grows robots’ who never had any formal training whatsoever. He made these robots from scrap metal and other materials. The worst thing that happened so far with his obsession with robots was that he burned his house down and his wife is quite resentful with his hobby too. I’ll have to say he do have some talent and his latest creation ‘The Rickshaw Robot’ is definitely one of the most unique robot I have ever seen. 1 videoclip after the jump.

      China is not a Communist state. It is unlike Europe or Russia under Communism. The Communist Party of China itself is only communist in name, but capitalist in essence.
