Some people return shoes . . . this guy returns ANVILS. Yes, the giant cartoon-style kind. šŖØš„
A man named John Stockwell is going viral on TikTok after revealing heās spent all of 2025 repeatedly buying and returning 110-pound anvils on Amazon.
Hereās whatās going on:
š¦ Each anvil costs $225+, weighs 110 pounds, and shows up on his doorstep with free Prime shipping.
š He immediately ships them back . . . also for free.
š In one video, he scrolls through his Amazon order history showing 10 anvils in just a couple weeks. He claims heās been at it for six months.
š When people ask why, his only answer is basically, ābecause I can.ā
Not everyone is laughing. Some commenters are roasting him for:
š Wasting delivery driversā time and backs
šø Hurting the small business that actually sells the anvils
ā³ Abusing Amazonās return system
John? He doesnāt care. In fact, when haters said theyād come to his house, he gave out Barack Obamaās address. (???) š¤¦
When a reporter asked what he was using them for, he said: āDropping on roadrunners.ā š¦šØ
Will Amazon shut this down? Probably. But for now . . . Johnās living his best cartoon supervillain life.
