It's interesting that they noticed it right in the vicinity of the LHC, maybe this hints at some kind of leak?

The one in my garden always watches me through the window then I turn on the vacuum, so maybe it's feeling some kind of oddity with the electric motor. It's an old 3500 Watts one, which is now illegal to sell, and badly shielded.

That's a stupid big motor for a vacuum. What was it made to vacuum up, bowling balls? Boulders? Neutron star dust? (Seriously though, I'd like to know the model to check it out)

You have a 5 horsepower vacuum? That’s impressive.
