A man has claimed that a delivery guy threw his parcel over the fence and took a picture of it mid-air to show proof of delivery.

Delivery guy throws parcel, takes pic mid-air

52-year-old Phil Hollingsworth who is a staff member for Warwickshire Police, was not home when his parcel from the Perfume Shop arrived. But he was stunned to see how it had been delivered when he received a confirmation email from Hermes (now Evri).

When he checked the 'proof of delivery' photo, he saw a picture of his parcel flying over a fence. The man shared his surprise along with the picture on Twitter with a throwback pic from 2020.

He captioned the image: "I fondly remember my Perfume Shop delivery being 'delivered' in this helpful shot. This is not fake btw. Travelled over two fences to get to my rear garden.

"Kudos to the delivery driver for 1. A decent aim. 2. Getting a photo immediately after he threw it."

Best proof of delivery ever

The post received more than 3000 likes. Many people found this funny, one person replying: ¡°This wins for the best delivery photo I have ever seen.¡± Another added: ¡°That¡¯s actually Awesome! Even if it had broken they¡¯d deserve some props for technical skill levels!¡± while a third penned: ¡°That's a pretty epic throw! The kudos are well deserved!¡±

Speaking to NeedToKnow, Phil explained: ¡°Initially when I got the email from Hermes, I looked at the picture attached to the e-mail and thought it was a bird. ¡°I couldn't work out what it was until I closely inspected the picture (with my new glasses on) and saw it might be my parcel.¡±

He added: ¡°I told the lads in the office and they laughed at it, thinking the same as me ¨C it must be a joke. When I got home and looked into my fenced mid terrace garden, hey presto the parcel was lying in the back garden! I took some pics and put them on Facebook and Twitter."

He said that initially he was pissed but it got better later.
