Video: This guy expertly builds tiny Lego vehicles using a massive digger

Just one man, and his lego, and an excavator…

Just one man, his blocks, and an excavator…

We’re not easily impressed here in JOE, but Finnish excavator operator Juha-Pekka Perämäki has left us in awe of his super skills on his machine.

The incredible video shows Perämäki build a Lego/Duplo truck in an extraordinary display of skill and patience, as he delicately places the pieces together with the bucket of the loader… like an absolute building boss.

Towards the end of the clip, when the video switches to a view from the cab, you really get an idea of how difficult this party trick is to master. It requires finesse and persistence, something that JOE lacks, except when it comes to making a sandwich…

Previously, we’ve seen instances where people have cleverly used excavators to get around everyday problems such as running out of fuel, lighting a cigarette and our personal favourite, how to load a digger without a ramp for a trailer, but we really like the effort that was put into this video by the Finnish man.

Fair play Juha-Pekka…
