Man Gets Trapped Inside Toilet While Trying To Retrieve Phone

A man in Norway has been rescued by firemen after getting stuck in a public toilet.
Cato Berntsen Larsen was reported to have climbed into the toilet in an attempt to rescue a phone that his friend had dropped while using the toilet.



The 20-year-old was said to have dived in feet-first and stood thigh-deep in the contents of the toilet for over an hour as he waited for help.

“I was obviously slim enough to get into it, but not slim enough to get out. I was down there for one hour, and it was very unpleasant”, Mr Larsen said.

According to reports, the toilet is not connected to the sewer and has a tank that sits underneath which is cleared out once a year.

Firefighters were forced to destroy the toilet to free Larsen, who was unsuccessful in retrieving the phone.

He was treated at hospital for some injuries to his upper arms and several bites on his body.
