Mr. Wu's Robots

"Wu Yulu, a struggling farmer and father of two, would not be regarded by most people as a success story. At 42 years of age he has destroyed his family home, been seriously burned and landed himself almost £5,000 in debt.

But Mr Wu - who left school at 14 and has no formal technical training - tells Sky News producer Holly Williams that it's all been in the name of science.

For the farmer, from Tongzhou, China, is a part-time inventor who creates 'labour-saving robots' out of scrap he finds at rubbish dumps."
