BIAłA PODLASKA, Poland, June 3 (UPI) -- An impatient man trying to start his barbecue grill in Poland turned to his aerial drone for some off-label assistance getting the charcoal fire going.

The video, posted to YouTube by user John Rides, shows a man attempting to get the charcoal in his barbecue grill to ignite.


The man seeks to save some time by holding his Syma X5C quadcopter in his hand and using the drone's rotors to fan the flames.

The user branded his method an "alternative use" for the quadcopter.

A commenter quipped the man would have had more success with a leaf blower, but the user responded: "Yes, it does, but can you imagine I am not taking my leaf blower with me on my vacation? Crazy me.﻿"
