"Burglar flees in terror after homeowner returns from New Year party... dressed as Thor, God of Thunder"
A muscle-bound building boss who came home from a New Year's Eve fancy dress party kitted out as Thor scared off a burglar by charging at him in his superhero outfit. At the site of the mighty Thor, the burglar threw himself out of the first-floor window.
"I think if I had had Thor's hammer with me I might have scared him to death", said the "look-alike" Thor. According to Norse legend, Marvel's Thor has a powerful and magical hammer called Mjolnir, which commands the powers of the storm, causing rain, thunder and lightning, and creates blasts so powerful it can level mountains and slay mortals and immortals alike.
