During the short clip, one of the builders is filmed in the bucket of a small minidigger which has sent its boom over the freshly poured concrete. 

The builder, using a concrete float, carefully screeds the surface to ensure it is as flat as a billiard table. 

The builder, who has not been identified, said: ‘I was working on an extension with two lads that work for me. We had some spare time so we decided to have a bit of fun.’
