As Iceland's first day of summer still brought miserably freezing weather and snow storms to its residents, Johann Birgisson expressed his frustration by making a video of himself ironically mowing his snow-filled lawn.

The video, aptly titled "Icelandic summer//Travel to Iceland//Weather in Icel" shows Birgisson bearing through icy winds and snowfall to cuts through the snow. As he does this, a friend rakes behind him in a laughably futile effort to get summertime going.

"It was just a joke, something we recorded because my sister had started mowing the lawn in Sweden," Birgisson told mbl.is. "The reaction is a little stronger than we expected -- it's been watched around the world."
