Canadian house traded on the clip Bashny.Net

All remember the old story about the house accordionist and a paper clip? I offer a new look at an old story.





In 2005, twenty-six Canadian Kyle MacDonald set out to exchange your house on the clip, and it is, imagine succeeded!

The idea of ​​Kyle put the children's game called "Pro * Bi their property" when the item is exchanged for something less valuable. Start subject to the exchange had a home in Toronto, from which Kyle and began to experiment. By placing an ad on the internet, Kyle waited offers.

The first responded to a Hollywood producer Corbin Bernsen, who offered to exchange the house for the right to appear in the new movie «Donna on Demand», which begins shooting in September.

The mayor of the tiny town of Kipling (1140 inhabitants) is a childhood dream to play in a film, so happily traded Kyle this chance to Christmas decoration snow globe - ball, inside which there is some sort of action, such as falling snowflakes, reindeer riding, etc. . But the ball, which got Kyle was not easy - the figures were within the band KISS.

It is this toy and brought his dream guy to the most unexpected way. Kyle found a man who was ready to die for ball right to spend the night with Alice Cooper. As it turned out, an activist movement to combat bats - a passionate collector of balls and that she had been in the collection of 6,500 pieces, but such is not present.

Straight Alice Cooper refused to sleep with Kyle, offering him for refusing to 30 hours unpaid work in the recording studio in Toronto. On the same day he called the aspiring singer, who had a home in Colorado. She suggested Kyle free to live in her house for a year in exchange for a contract with the studio.

This right is Kylie traded on the truck, and that in turn on the neon sign and a keg of beer into the bargain. Online diary in which he described in detail his adventures, drew attention, and Kyle was invited to Canadian television.

Beer he traded on a portable power generator. At this point Kyle realized that his dream is to live with a clip on the street can become a reality and, by his own admission, began to give the search for options for sharing a lot more time than paid before.

Generator he traded on the stove for camping and pechku- a ceramic doorknob handmade.

Then I put the handle enterprising Canadian sculptor, receiving in return a wooden handle in the shape of fish.

Finally, in the hardware store next door Kyle exchanged a handle on the long-awaited clip.

14 exchanges is done from beginning to end the whole operation. It lasted from 12 July 2005 to 12 July 2006, when McDonald officially took ownership of their clip. In autumn 2007, Kyle killed in a drunken brawl fellow homeless for refusing to use the clip as a fishing hook.

This event demonstrates the principle described even by Richard Poe in his book "The Fourth Wave or Network Marketing in the XXI Century" - the principle of leverage (the principle proebyvaniya).
