One-year-old boy gets head stuck in potty

A video has emerged from Russia of a little boy being freed by firemen after getting his head stuck in a potty.

In the footage, which was filmed in the city of Saratov on May 29, the firemen gently ease the plastic latrine off the one-year-old's head.

The child's mother had already tried unsuccessfully to free her son.

The boy was unhurt in the incident but noticeably scared.

According to the firemen, it was far from the first time they've had to release a child's head from a potty.
