Two embarrassed schoolboys were stuck for almost an hour after they wedged themselves into a swing designed for toddlers.
The secondary-age pupils were cut free by firefighters from Northfield Community Fire Station after their jape at Victoria Park, Birmingham, on Tuesday afternoon.
The pair had stuck by their legs in the swing's rectangular compartment, which is meant to stop pre-school children falling out. Fire crews from Northfield were called to the play area just after 3.30pm.
A West Midlands Fire Service spokesman said: “Two secondary school pupils had got themselves stuck in the swing together. They were there for about an hour as fire crews cut them out of the swing. The only injury they suffered was a bit of bruised pride.”
