Prank goes wrong! Man accidentally cements his head inside a microwave
A British internet ‘prankster’ had to be freed by firefighters after cementing his head inside a microwave oven, the media reported.
Fire service officials said it took an hour to free the man after they were called to a house in Wolverhampton city, reports the BBC.
Watch Commander Shaun Dakin said the man ‘could quite easily have suffocated or have been seriously injured’.
Dakin said: ‘He and a group of friends had mixed seven bags of Polyfilla which they then poured around his head, which was protected by a plastic bag inside the microwave.’
‘The oven was being used as a mould and wasn’t plugged in. The mixture quickly set hard and, by the time we were called, they’d already been trying to free him for an hour and a half. Crews from the technical rescue team helped with taking the microwave apart’, he added.
‘It took us nearly an hour to free him,’ added Dakin.
‘All of the group involved were very apologetic, but this was clearly a call-out which might have prevented us from helping someone else in genuine, accidental need.’
