Aus firefighters rescue man stuck in washing machine!

In a bizarre incident, a 22-year- old man in Australia was rescued by firefighters after he got stuck in a washing machine for three hours.
The man from western Sydney got stuck in the front loader and Bankstown Fire and Rescue men were called to his home in Lakemba.
The man had been trapped in the machine for at least three hours. His legs were stuck inside the machine up to his waist.
The man is mildly autistic and had got himself stuck in the machine before, firefighters were quoted as saying by the Sydney Morning Herald.
His parents first called paramedics, who sought help from NSW Fire and Rescue.

"This job was interesting as the crew had not performed a washing machine rescue before," the Bankstown crew posted on their Facebook page.

Under the direction of station officer David Cross, the crew implemented a plan to extract the patient by disassembling the washing machine, the post said.
They had to dissect the machine carefully and stabilise the washing drum while the outer mounts of the appliance were removed.
Once the exterior had been removed, firefighters cut away the stainless steel drum to free the man.
The rescue took just over an hour and the patient was taken to hospital as a precaution.

"It's definitely one of the most unusual jobs we've had," Cross was quoted as saying of the July 26 incident.
The man remained calm throughout the rescue "but he was in a lot of discomfort", he said.
