Firefighters in the United Kingdom have been called out to help a YouTube prankster who cemented his head inside a microwave.
It took the crew from the West Midlands Fire Service an hour to separate the 22-year-old man from the appliance.
"As funny as this sounds, this young man could quite easily have suffocated or have been seriously injured," Watch Commander Shaun Dakin said in a statement.
Using the microwave as a mould, friends of the man poured sevens bags of Polyfilla mix around his head, with only a plastic bag protecting his head inside the microwave.

The group spent more than an hour trying to free the man before calling for help, and managed to feed an air tube into his mouth.
Responders had to pull the microwave apart to get him unstuck, and they were not pleased about the call-out.
Oye! :Angie:
