Ok I will tell you.. It was in fact a Canon which was shot off a wall outside the parliament building. It was too heavy for the troops to pick up and put back on another section of wall

Fat, drunk egg (well he can't fall off a wall and be sober). Possibly suicide or murder as who'd want to kill a fat egg as without a motive it's meaningless time wasting.

maybe some huge monument or something was going to fall that couldn't be put together once it fell down and broke, or was it a dream or idea
