You couldn't make it up! A man had to be rescued by firefighters after getting his hand stuck down the toilet while trying to retrieve a bottle of shampoo. Wang Xuekui explains: "I wanted to wash my hair, but accidentally dropped the shampoo bottle into the toilet hole."
He put his hand down the hole in an effort to fish the bottle out. "I touched the bottle but when I was going to pull it out my arm was suddenly sucked in." Wang shouted to wake his wife and the couple spent half an hour trying to free him before admitting defeat and calling for help.
Firefighters first tried to free Wang's arm by covering it in soapy water and then cooking oil, but it was stuck fast. Eventually they had to resort to more desperate measures, entering the flat below and sawing open the pipe Wang's hand was stuck in and then enlarging the hole in his bathroom floor. Eventually, five hours after he first got stuck, Wang was freed
