Russian just married couples assumed a long-standing tradition of Italian weddings. They like to hang little or not so little padlocks on bridges as a symbol of their future long and stable married life. If it yet to be figured out if this really helps in preventing cheating or family tiffs, but the couples seem never to stop attaching steal pieces with their names on to the railing of Luzkov bridge, making it look like an ugly sculpture of vain hopes. The Moscow city authorities even set up there a big iron tree, where the happy newly-fledged wives and husbands are to hand their locks (to be totally honest, this pile of garbage on a stem can scare anyone of any age who sees it). Still, this tree is not as popular as the railing, and two enthusiastic volunteers made up to do things right and remove everything that was sticking out from the bridge railings and had romantic inscriptions. The guys dressed as utility workers waited for wedding processions appear on the bridge and began to cut off the locks in front of shocked brides. 67 trophies and a lot more to return for – that was the result of their hard work. “I wouldn’t mess with someone carrying a bolt cutter!”, told one of the tough guys. Would you?

Очень интересная акция, организованная moscowhite (рекомендую к прочтению весь журнал), имела место быть совсем недавно. В очередной раз было доказано, что хороший китайский болторез способен победить любой замок с надписью "Top Security", а технический прогресс сильнее рабского тупого подражания. 

Толпа зевак недоумевает - двое молодых людей, ловко орудуя болторезом, избавляют Патриарший Мост от глупых символов вечной любви - амбарных замков (в деревнях их еще используют как грузило для донки и сарай закрывают, чтобы мопед не спиздили).
