Now, let's head to Minnesota, USA.
As people look on, a giant pumpkin suspended high in the air drops straight to the ground.
Shattering to pieces with a loud roar, the flying fragments show a force comparable to a decent artillery shell.
It is a unique event where a giant pumpkin, carefully grown throughout the year, is lifted to a height of about 30 meters by a crane and then dropped, serving as the highlight of the local autumn festival.
It might seem a bit wasteful to smash an edible pumpkin like this.
However, the seeds from the pumpkin are collected by spectators and reportedly used to grow new giant pumpkins next year.
