A Finnish salesman comes to Russia to sell chainsaws to local lumberjacks.
“With this saw a good lumberjack can cut down 40 trees an hour and not even get tired” says the salesman.
The lumberjacks, thinking that sounds pretty good, place an order for 50 chainsaws.
At first they are delighted but then the miracle wears off as they notice the Finnish salesman has greatly overestimated the saws’ efficiency as their best of the best could only cut down 25 trees per hour max.
They call and tell him there must be something wrong with the saws and ask him to come over to identify the issue.
The salesman is surprised but comes over.
One of the lumberjacks hands him a chainsaw to have a look at. He pulls the string and the forest is quickly filled with the roar of the engine.
The lumberjack with his eyes wide open exclaims “On Lenin’s tomb!!!These are motorized?”
