What! That is not very tall! Policemen wear them, yes, but they are also worn by railway conductors and the French military (as you can see by the "female llama surprised in her bath above" wearing one) :O. I think they are also used by a few other countries too.

OK, my next item is a beverage to be consumed, although whether you should consume it is debatable, and whether you should even spend your hard earned cash on it is also questionable.

​As I said "official"!
Much better than what the "grumpy old bulldog" from whom that quote originated had to wear!
I collect anything: If it's Italian or Italian states i collect it even more!
Is it alcoholic?
No, not alcoholic.

In fact it's usually marketed as a health product, but like I said, whether you should put it in your body is a completely different question.
Is it an energy drink
Not really, it's sold more as a herbal supplement.

Usually marketing-targeted towards men, but I found a version being sold to women as well.
An algae or seaweed drink?
No, not an algae or seaweed drink.

It seems like most rounds there's just one person (who that person is alternates, at least) doing the majority of the guessing, so I'll wait for more people to have a go before revealing the next hint. ;)
A steroid drink to make muscles?
Tea?
...you can run,  but you can't hide...
Quote: "ken6528"​A steroid drink to make muscles?
​Not tea!

Not a steroid drink either, but with that guess you're getting much closer to the answer!
Can you buy it in a grocery store?
No, not available in a grocery store; you can order it online.

Here's the biggest hint; it's most famous for its promoter, a "performance artist" who famously dedicated his career to raising awareness about amphibians. :°
Something to do with frogs?
Quote: "ken6528"​Something to do with frogs?
​Yep, something to do with frogs.

​​Yep, something to do with frogs.
​The whole thing becomes more and more mysterious...

​Trust me, there's a good laugh at the end of the puzzle.

Also to be clear, I mean the object has nothing to do with frogs, but its promoter does. 8)
Is it known in USA or only in France?
Is it a drink you might savour while visiting Machu Picchu ?

I know it's not the solution but this information made my day :8D
Referee of south atlantic islands
It's actually from the United States, as is its promoter.

No, not a drink one might savour while visiting Machu Picchu.

One more hint; the drink's name is three words long, and its initials are identical to those of three mint officials that appear on Spanish coins from 1900-06.

​SMV? :D
ROMA AETERNA
Never mind, I see the initials are for the drink, I thought for the performance artists promoter, cancelling my answer haha

Neither of those, but yes, SMV are the initials. :°

Remember, despite it being marketed by this "performance artist" as a health product, whether you should put this beverage into your body is a different question altogether. :O
Its coca cola or pepsi :D
Former numista referee for Poland and half of african countries.
I invite you to my FB group about commemorative coins : https://www.facebook.com/groups/1635288620035921
Coca Cola and Pepsi are far more popular than this, and probably much better nutritionally too.

Recap, it's a "health drink" marketed by a "performance artist" (recently banned from Facebook and Twitter by the way) dedicated to raising awareness about same sex liaisons between amphibians, with three words in its name, initials SMV. 8)

Once you get it, there's some terrific laughs to be had for those who haven't been lucky enough to see this "performance artist" in action. ;)
I give up the only thing i found is Sex Market Value or Social Media Video but both don't suits to be called drink :)

Look for the "performance artist" that promotes it, and then the drink will become obvious.

I'm a bit surprised we haven't gotten him yet, but maybe some of you are fortunate enough to be blissfully unaware of this guy's antics. :P

Was this gigantic tree watered with this drink?
Referee of south atlantic islands
The promoter is not this frog king guy. He's a real, living person (who seems to be obsessed with frog reproduction).

And no, but the drink's promoter probably wants you to think the tree was watered with this drink. :°
Pretty sure I know what the drink is for.
This is going on for a bit longer than I expected; if no one gets it by Monday, I'll just reveal the answer.
Super Male Vitality brought to you by everyone's favorite gay frog expert Alex Jones. There's a pretty famous clip of him ripping off his shirt on camera which somewhat undermines the claims that SMV will return your body to it's 25 year old, ripped state.

I left a review for one of his other products "Brain Force" which reads "Two years ago I was a struggling real estate agent, then I discovered Brain Force and today I'm the most powerful man in the world - D.J.T. New York" It's still there for anyone to read.
Non illegitimis carborundum est.  Excellent advice for all coins.
Make Numismatics Great Again!  
Bravo, Super Male Vitality™ is the answer! Seeing as some seem to be more familiar with this colourful character than others, here's a little introduction for everyone to have a laugh at on a Sunday morning.


Alex Jones is the host of the conservative conspiracy theorist show InfoWars, where he and his friends peddle nonsense conspiracies, and then conveniently switches to peddling a product that will supposedly protect you from aforementioned conspiracy. If not for the sheer lunacy, I'd almost call him a marketing genius, but maybe it's the gullibility of those who actually believe him that's to blame here.

Some of his most ridiculous claims include:
- The government is trying to sterilise men by putting chemicals in the water that turn the friggin' frogs gay!
- The children killed in US school shootings and their parents are crisis actors in staged government hoaxes.
- The former first lady of the US is secretly transgender, and by the way LGBT+ people are pedophiles running child trafficking rings out of pizzerias.
- The government has weather weapons that are the true cause of floods and hurricanes (take that, Chinese climate change hoax!)
- Vaccines cause autism (you'd think this one'd be too mainstream for him)
- 9/11 was an inside job and a false flag, and many, many more.
(So it's obvious why the most powerful man in the world, consults this man for information. :°)

For posterity, here's a video of the man himself in a frog costume, a tutu and face paint speaking in falsetto.
I reckon it's my turn then.

I had what I hoped was a lifetime attachment to an English seafarer. Sadly it was not to be, and our separation lead to an outbreak of war.

​It's the ear of Captain Jenkins.
Too easy eh?

Apparently.

Getting the thread back on track; I'll do a (relatively) easy one:
This object is associated with an Eastern European country, and most of us probably don't own one of these, but we might own smaller, less expensive versions of it.

Guess away! :`
A sickle ?

The lance of St George ?
Referee of south atlantic islands
Neither of those things, although it is from Russia and it is also made out of metal.
Is it jewelry?
Faberge Egg?
Non illegitimis carborundum est.  Excellent advice for all coins.
Make Numismatics Great Again!  
Not jewellery.

It's used with the elements of fire and water.
Vessel to hold water? A Samovars?
Yes, it's a samovar!

I got lucky on that guess. :O

Here is the next one.
I am very BIG. You might have used me, but I am sure you don't own me.
Is it made of metal?
It is made of mostly metal. It also has wood, plastic, rubber, cloth and everything possible.
Swing set
Much larger
A mode of transportation?
I collect anything: If it's Italian or Italian states i collect it even more!
Cruise Ship?

​Doesn't everyone own their own cruise ship?
OK, my turn.
Here's a hint, no home should be without one, but you don't want it in the home.
Kids

​Was going to guess dogs, which is really only a hop and skip away from kids. 8)

Is it a machine or transportation of sorts (like a car or bicycle?)
Is it some kind of landscaping? Like as tree?
It can be incorporated into landscaping or stand alone, but is not a tree
Is it alive? Like a horse?
A fountain or something like that?
Even with the new hints and answers to the questions asked I still think the answer to this should be KIDS!
It is not alive and it is not a fountain.
Still not kids either.
Is it a trampoline, or something else to play with that might cause damage when used indoors?
Swimming pool?
No water should be involved, but it will cause damage if you use it indoors.
Does it have a motor? Gasoline or electric?
It is not mechanical.
Sports related? Tennis or basketball?
Quote: "ken6528"​Sports related? Tennis or basketball?
​It is for recreational/relaxation purposes, but not sports-related.
BBQ?
Quote: "ken6528"​BBQ?
​Close, but no. In the same ballpark though.
Chimineas or fire pit?
A fire pit was what I was thinking of Ken. Great job.
Your turn.
Men might have this in their pocket. Women might have it in their purse.
a Condom to prevent kids?
Quote: "Salaction"​a Condom to prevent kids?
​no not that. You must not like kids. :O
Then it is a wallet :D
Not a wallet.
Quote: "Salaction"​a Condom to prevent kids?
​Salaction, what do you have against kids?
Nothing, I even admitted that no house should be without one :D
Quote: "Salaction"​Nothing, I even admitted that no house should be without one :D
Haha, I am not being serious.
Unfortunately, my house is without kids, but my wife and I have a dog and two cats, who all act like children.
That counts aswell :D
Back to the game.
A credit card?
Not a credit card.
Quote: "ken6528"
​A paperclip, a wad of gum and a string that he can turn into a bomb?
none of the above.
is the object related to McGuyver?
Credit-Debit Card?
Quote: "JRo69"​is the object related to McGuyver?
Yes​
Not a Credit-Debit Card
Pocket knife?
Quote: "johnspa"​Pocket knife?

Is it located inside or outside of a house?
Is it made of metal?
