Boy builds a Truck 

Using a single container will be difficult to achieve as access to water can be very difficult, especially in locations close to the desert.

This young boy chose to ignore the rules. He constructed a truck that can move numerous water cans from one location to another using his mechanical engineering talents and technical knowledge.

The vehicle’s body was constructed using four wheels, a functioning mechanical motor, metal rods, and wood.

That turned out well for him because the device could easily deliver more than five 25-litre gallons to him.

He started the machine and even drove it outside in the video to demonstrate that it works perfectly. He considered that the road was bad and built it according to that.
