A man was left furious after his neighbor threw leaves over the fence into his garden – so he decided to give him a taste of his own medicine.
The argument was posted on TikTok by an American man named Josh from Minnesota who is passing by @joshthepetty on the app.
First of all, him posted a video of his neighbor emptying a rubbish bin full of leaves over the fence into his garden, with the caption 'How my neighbor throws away his leaves! #badneighbour' – it has been viewed more than 220,000 times.
This was the reason for his revenge plan and most viewed video of the exchangecaptioned “Part 2 Don't be a Larry,” which was seen by more than 13.2 million people and sparked a debate in the comments.
The footage shows how Josh and his friends decided to take matters into their own hands.
First, he posted a video of his neighbor emptying a garbage can full of leaves over the fence into his yard, with more than 220,000 views.
Armed with two backpack leaf blowers and one standalone leaf blower, he and two friends blow the piles of leaves back into the neighbor's yard.
As they furiously blow away the leaves, Josh's neighbor sticks his head out in an attempt to defend his yard with his own smaller leaf blower.
However, the device was no match for what the three men had, so he was left defeated with every blade on his side of the fence.
Josh closed the TikTok with a photo of his cleared yard, captioned “Yards done #blessed.”
Viewers were quick to give their opinion on the neighborly dispute – and not everyone agreed with the TikToker.
One user wrote: 'Looks like it's just bringing back your leaves…I mean your garden is literally made of leaves…lol'.
However, someone else disagreed, writing: 'Maybe you missed the other trees everywhere? the wind blows and carries the leaves of the trees everywhere. it's definitely not just those boy trees'.
Another defender of the neighbor said: “I mean, the person has zero trees in his yard. You would have to pay to have their yard cleaned.”

The little leaf blower that neighbor Larry had was no match for what the three men had, so he was left defeated with every leaf back on his side of the fence
He also posted a third clip of the leaf blower attack from a new angle, with neighbor Larry desperately trying to stop them.
Others wrote: 'Buddy doesn't have any trees in his yard so they're probably coming from your tree lol. Looks like he's just giving your leaves back to you” and “I'm with Larry, your tree, your leaves….”
Someone else agreed, “To be fair, Larry's backyard is tree free… he's just giving your property back because he can't cut down the tree,” and another chimed in with, “Yes, I agree with Lary at sometime. An.
'He has zero trees in his garden. He just gives you back your leaves'.
Another suggested: 'The fact he's probably been dumping over the fence for years. There is no way that one garden had five feet of leaves covering the garden in one year.”
Meanwhile, someone else joked: “Larry was fighting for his life with his little blazer” and another admitted: “I aspire to this level of petty, calculated revenge.”
Some users believed the Minnesota man's actions, with one fan praising him and saying: 'Good job, all these fools saying he has no trees don't understand city ordinances, where the leaves fall is who has to pick them up' .
One viewer wrote: '“Your tree, your leaves” are the same people who can't put shopping carts back'.
Another wrote: 'The number of people who don't understand how wind works is absolutely astonishing,' while someone else agreed: 'Right?! Should I now run to all the neighbors' houses and pick up 'my' leaves?'
Alongside laughing emojis, another commenter said: 'Man I would love to see you go live doing this, I really want to be involved.'
Josh responded, admitting that he would “leave the situation alone, but we'll see if he retaliates.”
Him too posted a third clip of the leaf blower attack from a new angle, with neighbor Larry desperately trying to stop them.
The neighbor continued dumping barrels of leaves while Josh and his friends blew the leaves back, causing even more chaos and a “leaf war.”
The TikTok was captioned, “You should never dump a barrel of leaves you've already collected directly into a leaf blower. This is just another angle from the other day #leafwar #badneighbour'.
