    Topless wife photo ends man's pole protest
    Fri Mar 2, 9:24 AM ET

    BERLIN (Reuters) - A German man who spent 10 days in a self-made box atop a 72-foot-tall pole to protest a looming jail term was lured off his perch by his wife -- who sent up a topless picture of herself in his lunch box.

    Fred Gregor, 45, was bidding to have his 15-month conviction for fraud overturned by squatting in his tiny cubicle atop a converted television mast. He told Reuters in a telephone interview last week that he wanted a new trial.

    His wife Susanne, 25, backed his protest until the former stripper and mother of their five children decided she had had enough.

    How big is the dude's lunchbox?
    For every action there is an equal and opposite criticism.

    That's the first instance of a German redneck ever before seen in public.

    What sent him scurrying proves 5 kids is easily obtainable.
