Protesting man lured from perch by topless photo

Did you hear the true story about how a woman lured her husband from a self made box that was perched on top of a 72 foot pole?

2007_03_02t131817_300×450_us_germany_protest_topless.jpg No? Well he’d been up there protesting a looming jail term when his wife lured him down with a topless picture of herself that she’d included in the lunch that she’d sent up to him.

The hope and promise of a romp does it every time it seems.

Fred Gregor, 45 of Germany, was trying to have his 15 month conviction for fraud over turned by staying in his small cubicle which was perched high up on a converted television mast.

When interviewed over the telephone, he told Reuters that he wanted a new trial. His wife Susanne, 25, had originally backed up his protest until she eventually decided she’d had enough. Susanne is a former stripper. No wonder that topless photo worked! Together she and Fred are the parents of five children.

Perhaps now he’ll appeal his conviction just like most other people do when they feel that they’ve been wrongly convicted.

    That certainly is definitely taking things to a bit of an extreme especially for something that overall isn’t that big of a deal. I’m not too sure how appeals work but wouldn’t he remain free anyhow until the appeal went through?

    Just shows that no matter what a guy is doing, a chance at a romp will always win!

    That is too funny. And so weird. The 72 foot pole perch is very odd. Where does one get one of those perches.
