A Man Takes A Single Rake to The Beach. And When You Zoom Out And See It... Mind BLOWN.

"Mind-blowing" should also have "mind blown"
Perhaps "a single" should be reduced to just "a"?

Okay, I rescind the part about fixing the first part. I capitalized the words (case-sensitive) and it works like a charm. Headline still crap, though.
