A toddler in China found herself in a precarious position recently when she was left to play unsupervised at the home of a family friend.

The girl somehow climbed into a washing machine and got herself stuck from the waist down, prompting her mother to call the fire department to help get her out. When their attempts failed, the men were forced to literally cut her out of the machine, saving the day. They allegedly distracted the little girl with candy to calm her nerves, but no doubt her mother needed more reassurance than she did.
