Hilarious moment woman has to be cut free from her office chair after her NOSE RING got stuck in it, forcing colleagues to drive her to the fire brigade
Hilarious video shows how an entire team of firefighters had to intervene to free a woman from her office chair after her nose ring became entangled in it.
The unfortunate worker in the city of Bandung, Indonesia, got her piercing in the mesh chair after jokingly sticking her nose through the holes in it, a local firefighter said.
“She had a new piercing and was playing, just for fun, before she messed up,” Bandung city firefighter Asep Rizky told local media.
“She kept putting the piercing in the chair, but it got stuck, and she ended up having to call the fire department,” he added.
CCTV footage from her workplace shows the moment she and her colleagues realize she has gotten into trouble.
Her face is stuck to the back of the wheelchair and her colleagues come over to try to free her from it.
About half a dozen people gather to take a look and help, but they are unable to do so and the ornament remains firmly attached to the chair.
They realized they had no choice but to call the local fire brigade, who rushed to the property to provide assistance.
The unnamed woman “kept the piercing stuck in the chair and it got stuck,” according to a local fire official
About half a dozen of her colleagues gathered around the woman, and several tried to gently release her from the chair

Still unable to free her from the chair, they carefully moved her and the chair to a van to take her to the local fire station.
Her friend who accompanied her on the trip could not contain her laughter, local media reported, even though her friend was afraid her new jewelry would be ripped out.
They filmed the entire journey, including the hilarious moment when the woman, still facing back on the seat, was wheeled out of the car.
Firefighters responded in good spirits as they tried to calm her fears and keep spirits high, cracking jokes as the woman continued to panic.
At one point they even pulled out a chainsaw and other heavy tools, chuckling as they pretended to use them on the chair.
Fortunately, sawing was not necessary and a firefighter with pliers and a pair of steady hands managed to get the woman out of the chair after about 10 minutes of trying.
