A mischievous bull who a sparked a massive power cut by scratching his 'itchy bum' on an electricity pole is on the brink of worldwide fame.
Never mind the Kardashians, Ron - AKA 'Sparky' - is on the verge of stardom after he left 700 homes in Chapelton and Strathaven without power when he took out a transformer box plunging the area into darkness.
He survived a stunning 11,000 volts and escaped thankfully with only a large bump on his head. Mortified owner Hazel Laughton, 35, from East Shawtonhill farm in Chapelton took to Facebook with a grovelling apology on behalf of Ron which went viral and has attracted attention from as far afield as Australia, Canada, Netherlands and India.
