If you're ever in need of an anvil, just know that you can buy them online: despite their weight, they will get delivered to you! 

No one knows that better than TikTok creator and comedian who goes by @stocklett. This guy claims to have been buying and returning anvils on Amazon just for the fun of it! Curiosity got the best of him one day, and he placed an order for a 110-pound anvil on the world's biggest online merchandiser. But he didn't need an anvil, obviously. So he just returned it. And then, just to see what would happen, he did this again. And again. And again. 

Well, to everyone's surprise, he has not been stopped! He is still being a menace to delivery folks everywhere — and trust that commenters do get very upset about that with every video this guy posts. Every time he gets an anvil shipped out to him, he's burning a box, a label, packing tape, and he's just wasting everyone's time, too. It wastes the gasoline needed to bring it to him, and I sure hope that anyone actually delivering these giant anvils to his home has strong enough muscles to handle it! It's a wild experiment that clearly this guy has no plans of stopping any time soon.

    RadioChicken911 What's kind of even funnier- is that the next guy who gets a chipped anvil is probably also gonna send it back....
