Autumn, the season of abundance and harvest, is here.

This year, one person has achieved an exceptionally massive harvest.

It is reported that he grew a pumpkin as heavy as an entire hippopotamus.

An adult man is standing next to the pumpkin, but is it an optical illusion due to perspective?

The pumpkin is so huge that the man looks just like a dwarf in a fairy tale.

This was at a giant pumpkin competition held in the UK.

When the pumpkin was placed on the scale, it weighed exactly 1,295.8 kg!

It is taller than a person and approaches 1.3 tons in weight.

He broke the world record that he had set with his brother last year, this time doing it all by himself.

It feels like this single pumpkin would be more than enough to throw a feast for the entire village.
