Justin Ownby had broken his own personal record by growing a pumpkin that weighed 910 pounds and then celebrated his achievement by turning it into a boat.

Adrianna RodriguezAfter a Tennessee farmer grew a nearly 1,000-pound pumpkin, he dug out the seeds and climbed in.

The farmer from Cleveland, Tennessee, had been attempting to grow a 1,000-pound pumpkin for the past four years but this year had a secret weapon that brought him closer to his goal, his wife told CNN. “He chose a pot where the water ran off easily, keeping it cool in the heat of the day, keeping it watered and making sure that the squash beetles didn’t overtake it,” Christin told local Chattanooga station WTVC.

Christin posted his little adventure on Facebook and even captured the moment he fell off. She told WTVC that the last time she checked, the pumpkin was still floating in the pond.

‘Catherine the Great’ Review: From Russia, With Love (and Lust)'Catherine the Great' drops Helen Mirren and Jason Clarke into a gorgeous, opulent 18th-century Russia; as an HBO miniseries, however, it's barely good enough. Our review That is because Dame Mirren Is regal anyway'...... Helen Mirren, Judy Dench & Maggie Smith are my favorite [English] actresses of all time. Helen should’ve made a perfect Catherine the Great. Sadly she did not. Hate to even say it but is true, Russia made - Ekaterina: the rise of Catherine the Great - on Amazon, is much better.
