Odd moment Edinburgh man with crutch kicks full keg of beer down city centre street

The extraordinary moment a man kicking a full keg of beer while walking with a crutch in Edinburgh's city centre has been captured on camera.

A railway worker near Waverley station recorded the bizarre moment on Saturday night, as two individuals and a dog can be seen walking towards Market Street while kicking what appears to be a full keg.

One of the individuals is walking with a crutch, as the other bends down to move the keg along the road. With no idea how the pair managed to get hold of the keg, the eye witness, Stephen Tierney, couldn't believe what he was seeing.

With such a brazen incident in need of capturing, Stephen pulled his phone out to record what he was witnessing.

He said: "It came from the top of the hill at Waverley station , we seen them rolling it from the top but never seen where it came from, it definitely was a full keg when we asked the boy how did you manage that his reply was 'because I’m brazen as f***, I just took it'"

"We are railway workers and were just waiting on getting access to the station. The other guy was left to do most of the rolling down the hill as the other had a bad leg."

Stephen captured a 30-second video of the pair taking turns to use their legs to wheel the huge steel keg down the street, and soon disappeared into the distance.
