How David Lynch Won His 10-Year War Against Squirrels: "I Called It the Sadness Record" - Director's Bizarre Story!

David Lynch, master of surrealism in *Twin Peaks*, *Eraserhead* and *Mulholland Drive*, even turned a war against squirrels into art! For a decade, he used a system to protect bird feeders. When it broke, Lynch found an unusual solution: an old vinyl record.

"I made one of these in 1987, and the squirrels destroyed it. I finally got an LP and put it on the stand - and it worked!" he told The Telegraph. "The squirrels couldn't climb up. I called it the 'Disk of Sadness'. I saw adult squirrels crying because they couldn't reach the feeder anymore!"

A must-see for fans of David Lynch, bizarre curiosities and anyone who loves seeing artists in everyday situations. Proof that creativity has no limits!
