    Firefighters free toddler trapped in toy arcade game

    Firefighters had to free 18-month-old Colin Lambert after he climbed inside an arcade game in Maryville, Tennessee.

    The toddler managed to get inside the machine at a launderette while his grandmother Diane O'Neill was distracted by a text message.

    She took these photographs while waiting for the emergency services to arrive.

        That went through my mind too, but she does sound a bit dappy and would probably have tried for the cuddly toy instead :)

          If he got in there then it must have been possible to get him out.
          Some people just like to get on the news.

                        Don't be silly Zigs, this is America - they could have used a Big Mac instead which is their equivalent of lard.

                            Is it safe to have this tree/bush with a toddler running free?
