Naked man stuck in washing machine

A grand and splendiferous day to you! Thanks for clicking by today. As always, it is a treat to see you. Speaking of treats, help yourself to a mugful of coffee and a virtual muffin or Aussie Anzac cookie, why don't'cha, while I tell you about some Australian guy who forgot where his shower was?

Police in Australia have rescued a naked man who got stuck inside a washing machine while playing a game of hide-and-seek.

The man reportedly hid inside the top-loading machine so he could surprise his partner.But he became stuck and it took 20 minutes for rescuers to dislodge him using olive oil as a lubricant. 

Firefighters, paramedics and a search-and-rescue squad were also called to help with the situation.

The incident took place on Saturday in Mooroopna town, north of Melbourne, in Victoria state.Few details were revealed about the man, with some reports saying he was 20 years old.

Sergeant Michelle De Araugo said "it was just a game gone wrong".

"It would be fair to say the gentleman was very embarrassed."

Another officer cautioned against misusing household equipment. 

"My advice would be for people not to climb into appliances - obviously that can cause a number of issues, as we've seen on the weekend," the Australian Broadcasting Corporation quoted First Constable Luke Ingram as saying. 

Oh boy! He sure wouldn't want to be squatting down, legs on either side of the agitator when someone turned it on, eh!  I don't even want to think about it!

See ya, eh!
