Divorced Man Chain Saws House in 1/2 ....!!!!!!!

Breakups and divorces can often be messy affairs. But a German man took his impending divorce to extremes – by chainsawing a family house in half, and taking his half away.

The man, who is 43 years old, attacked the single storey summer house with his chainsaw after measuring it. The man is reportedly a trained mason, although that probably wasn't much help to him, as the house was made of wood.

Once he'd cut it in half, he picked one half up with a forklift truck, and drove it to his brother's house, in the town of Sonneberg.

A spokesman for the local police commented: 'The man said he was just taking his due. But I don't think his wife was too pleased.'
