Bottled air anyone ?

Un-breathe-lievable! Dorset businessmen sells county's fresh air to Chinese for £80 a pop!

..Share    3 comments A CANNY Dorset businessman is making thousands of pounds out of selling bottled British air to the Chinese for a gasp-inducing £80 a go.

The smog-plagued elite of Beijing and Shanghai are snapping up the decanters from Leo De Watts who 'farms' fresh-air from the British countryside.

His team of air-gricultural workers put bottles in adapted fishing nets and hold them aloft as they stride through a muddy field to 'harvest' the product.

They then leave it open for up to 10 minutes to capture the area's aroma, but also ensure no grass or bugs get into the 'organic' product.

In just a few weeks of launching the barmy venture Mr De Watts, 27, has sold 180 580ml containers of breeze from Dorset, Somerset, Wales, Wiltshire and Yorkshire.

Once unbottled, the 'experience' of inhaling the fresh-air for the consumer lasts just a few seconds. People are also buying the breeze as a novelty gift that will never be opened.

I knew it had to happen someday, just thought it would have been the Labour party who did it first, and then sold it to us ?

Communists excel at killing their population with starvation and pollution being two of their more common. The more select are treated to Gulags and exclusive murders like Polonium tea.

It's one of those moments when you think "Why the heck didn't I think of that?"

Who was it that famously said" There is a mug born every minute and while that continues, I will exploit them." ?

I am surprised that the Chinese haven't built solar/hydro powered wind turbines to blow the smog away(to some other sucker).

No shortage of air in Dorset today. It sounds like it's about to take the roof off. :o

I'd bottle some myself, but it's about 50% water. >:(
