VIDEO: N.H. man scammed out of thousands at carnival

A 30-year-old man said he squandered his entire life savings – about $2,600 – on a carnival game in an effort to win an Xbox Kinect, but all he ended up with is a life-sized banana with dreadlocks.

Henry Gribbohm, of Epson, N.H., told CBS Boston that he lost the money after going on tilt at a Manchester, N.H. carnival put on by Fiesta Shows. FULL STORY HERE: New Hampshire man blows life savings on ‘Tubs of Fun’ carnival game, wins stuffed banana

In response, Next Media Animation created a video reenactment of the unfortunate event. The Taipei-based company animates news events, and according to a spokesperson, Gribbohm’s story caught their eye.
