Boy trapped in washing machine rescued by firefighters

A seven-year-old boy had to be rescued by firefighters after he got trapped inside a washing machine while playing a game of hide and seek with his sister.

The seven-year-old kid from Ukraine was playing the game with his sister in his family's flat when he decided to get inside the drum of the machine, but was unable to get back out, Metro.co.uk reports.

None of his family were able to pull him out so they were forced to call emergency services.

The four men decided to pour sunflower onto the boy's body and luckily he suddenly slipped out.
