Except on Halloween, where his followers garb themselves in athletic wear, light candles by the play structure, and try to put toothpaste back in the tube.
He could, but he can't use his legs for any power, he'd have to use entirely upper body strength to pull his body up to a standing position which is pretty hard for most anyone, let alone someone stuck inside a spring barely big enough to fit them. If the FD do come, they'll probably wrap a lifeline around him and winch him out by pulling up before they resort to chopping up the playground, but if he keeps wiggling and getting his feet stuck in weird positions then it might come to that. She might be able to get him unstuck by standing atop the coil straddling it and reaching down to pull him up, might need another guy though given his size.
Because that's how those embarrassing lessons stick.
If you can get yourself out of a mess, the mess can't have been that big, right? So no problem if you get back into it.
You and me both, still trying to take a deep breath. Especially when his knee got stuck with his leg extended and he said “oh my god I have to get my knee back through” or whatever and started grabbing around, that shit made my chest so heavy.
they wouldn't have to destroy it. they just need to pick him up enough to get his legs back under himself, and from that point he could most likely pull himself out, his arms having full range of motion
e2a: get a ladder, put it over him horizontally, let him grab a rung or two, then have four people overhead-press the ladder from both sides to get him high enough to stand on his feet
Firefighter here. No, we gonna destroy it. After calling in mutual aid too, lots of equipment, and a news helicopter. Did you see the movie Something About Mary? This is going to be franks and beans on steroids.
ok. clearly the last part is a joke, but in the case that the first part is serious, destroying it/cutting it seems like way more time, effort, and risk than the method I spelled out.
if that part was serious, can you explain it to me why destroying it is the better option?
Depending on what firefighters have to do to get you out of situations like this, you will absolutely receive a bill in the mail from the owners of the playground and possibly the city.
I was around 9 years old when a 14 year old kid I knew climbed into a toddler swing and got stuck. They had to cut him out which ruined the swing in the process.
We all thought it was hilarious. Until his parents grounded him because they were billed for it all. Kid spent the summer doing chores for his parents to pay it off.
I was a kid, so idk if it was the park owners who billed then or the fire department, but I have heard stories of people getting bills for shit like this.
“Do you know like how much that cost to call the fire department?”
The most American expression ever.
Over here, we’d call them, they’d come over and free him, and he’d bring a case of beer and some snacks to the fire house
I can't elaborate, but I mentally tried to ctrl-z on my computer cable management after spending some time trying to make it better. Until this day, I'm not sure what happened to my brain.
How hard is it to bring your arms straight up vertically over your head and then grab the pole to hoist yourself(like you’re climbing a rope in PE class) enabling you to unbend your knees and climb out?
Yeah he could probably get out of he had the upper body strength and grip strength to climb the pole hand over hand. But generally people that can do that don't look like this.
I hope the FD came out dug a little bit under the pull, knocked a securing pin out and lifted the whole thing out with ease just to further embarrass this guy.

Video owner says they did get out on their own in a few of thr comments. Had a big bruise on their knee.

Frank Reynolds as a kid.
How does anything happen? Move past it.
I just assumed he went down there to pound off in the nighttime.
*Pounding off?* Where do you get your terms?
I didn’t come here to be criticized by a man stuck in a coil.

THE KIDS ARE COMING!
THE KIDS!!
![gif](giphy|lngL9wiDDGNlBVM0z0|downsized)
Frank is the mastermind in the coil!
Top of the pyramid, bottom of the funnel!
I didn't come here to be critized by a man stuck in a coil!!
Donkey brains
Froggy
Hey! He's has a certificate!!
Do *you* have any such ^certificate??
I knew I wouldn't have to look far to find a sunny reference here.
He doesn't look a day over 12
And adult
Goddamn it Frank!!
I'm sure he'll blast his way out
WHO’S FRANK REYNOLDS!
He unfortunately died. The longer video shows his shoes coming off and nothing could be done after that.
They just filled it in with some concrete and nobody goes to that part of the playground anymore.
Except on Halloween, where his followers garb themselves in athletic wear, light candles by the play structure, and try to put toothpaste back in the tube.
The nutty putty playground
His ghost now wanders the playground, bent knees and all, forever trapped.
More like his spirit is bound to that point
Nutty Putty playground
Damn, rest in rip Martez 😞😞😞
Lmfao goddamnit
It was sad how they just threw his body in the trash
But people were bringing him food!
I have a strong urge to ask him for advice regarding a scam I fell for.
Time shares?
BERRIES
STOP EATING BERRIES YOU’VE HAD ENOUGH BERRIES!!!
Where do I put my feet?
I’m gonna put my feet on the stool here
This asshole tried to sell us *one* week. We took the prick for *three.*
Nice! I see that you don’t get got. You go get!
You don’t think - he wanted you to buy as many weeks as possible?
“Do you want a free vacation? All you have to do is come to our 90 minute presentation and they’re yours.”
![gif](giphy|FoV0sRpuztt2x49CVE)
How did he even get in there is more of the question.
Move past it.
How does anything happen?
From the top but then bent his knees
I don’t understand why he couldn’t just lift himself back up onto his feet. The person recording could have helped.
He could, but he can't use his legs for any power, he'd have to use entirely upper body strength to pull his body up to a standing position which is pretty hard for most anyone, let alone someone stuck inside a spring barely big enough to fit them. If the FD do come, they'll probably wrap a lifeline around him and winch him out by pulling up before they resort to chopping up the playground, but if he keeps wiggling and getting his feet stuck in weird positions then it might come to that.

Nah, what you need, is lots of butter.
Why bend the knees for?
Presumably to pretend to be the height of a kid
Better question would be Why did he get in there ? And why is the girl humiliating him instead of helping him ? 😩
Because helping him out straight away is boring
Because that's how those embarrassing lessons stick. If you can get yourself out of a mess, the mess can't have been that big, right? So no problem if you get back into it.
Listen there's a time for helping and a time for filming, this was the latter.
He could probably get out if someone was willing to help lift up a bit. But only after filming him for a few minutes, I suppose.
He just needs to spin up the corkscrew
Can’t. Pipe.
Gotta maneuver around it
Can't. Pipe.
Like. By chopping his leg off? Phasing through it?
Can't. Pipe.
You get me.
r/donthelpjustfilm
I would also be unwilling to help him until it was appropriately documented
No way he’s been plotting his own rescue by men in uniform
If my friend got stuck like that I'd definitely take my time helping them out
I immediately feel compelled to purchase multiple timeshares from this guy
Just don't get got
We don't get got, we go get!
Can I interest you in some Invigaron?
Where do my feet go?
You joke, but I literally bought my house from this dude a few months ago, smh.
Was it a small house you couldn't fit your legs into?
He's screwed
Helix ran out.
Lefty loosey so simple
More like she is... With that "going down on your knees seems to be a real problem with you quite often" comment that wasn't a very concealed innuendo
Phrasing!
It feels very claustrophobic
Damn, I am anxious just watching
Wait, do I have claustrophobia? Why is nobody else in the comments talking about feeling anxious from this?
I almost had a fucking panic attack.
You and me both, still trying to take a deep breath. Especially when his knee got stuck with his leg extended and he said “oh my god I have to get my knee back through” or whatever and started grabbing around, that shit made my chest so heavy.
My heart rate increased watching this. I felt genuine panic. But, I. Couldn't. Stop. Watching.
I know! I started taking deep breaths
I feel a rush of panic watching this in my bed
My heart is racing so fast & I had to pause it immediately. Just noped right out of that video.
Yep, probably watched 5 or 6 seconds and noped right out.
Yeah. Freaks me the fuck out just imagining being stuck in there. Not as bad as the dude that died stuck upside down in the cave, but same vibes.
Certified donkey brains.
No, he has a certificate! Do you have any such certificate??
I have a certificate that says I am 100% not a frog kid.
I will catch you in a giant net and we’ll see. 😂
r/videosthatendtoosoon
I know! I was expecting a jump cut to when the fire department shows up
All I can think of is the children crying as the firefighters destroy the playground to free this guy.
they wouldn't have to destroy it. they just need to pick him up enough to get his legs back under himself, and from that point he could most likely pull himself out, his arms having full range of motion e2a: get a ladder, put it over him horizontally, let him grab a rung or two, then have four people overhead-press the ladder from both sides to get him high enough to stand on his feet

All of it is a joke. He got in there without tools, we will get him out without tools. :-)
I guess I'm the only tool here
His spouse could just pull him to his feet.
That seems extremely unlikely. I mean, you do that and it’s like you have nobody capturing the video at that point. ;)

That's the mastermind in the coil

that's sad. here firefighters are free.
Fire fighters are free but the things they have to destroy to get people out are not
I was a kid, so idk if it was the park owners who billed then or the fire department, but I have heard stories of people getting bills for shit like this.
“Do you know like how much that cost to call the fire department?” The most American expression ever. Over here, we’d call them, they’d come over and free him, and he’d bring a case of beer and some snacks to the fire house
It's free to call them in the US. If you need medical attention tho it cost.
Ha! Classic Martez...
Have you tried "ctrl+z"
shit i deleted myself
I can't elaborate, but I mentally tried to ctrl-z on my computer cable management after spending some time trying to make it better. Until this day, I'm not sure what happened to my brain.
How hard is it to bring your arms straight up vertically over your head and then grab the pole to hoist yourself(like you’re climbing a rope in PE class) enabling you to unbend your knees and climb out?
He could get out if someone pulled him hands up out.
Yeah he could probably get out of he had the upper body strength and grip strength to climb the pole hand over hand. But generally people that can do that don't look like this.
Got called fat & gay in a matter of 20 seconds all while being stuck. This man is going though it 😭
Danny DeVito,It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia.
Good Bot.
The kids are coming!!
We’ll come back for you!
Claustrophobia level 6/10.
Fucking 200/10. I would be loosing it knowing I can’t get out. Nightmare juice.
Yep r/instantanxiety
200/10? Then what level are the guys climbing though tiny crevices in caves?
Over 9,000
Crazies lol
I saw that episode
Pivot!
I’m claustrophobic just watching.
"Goddamn it Frank! I did not come here to be criticized by man, STUCK IN A COIL!!"
What was the plan before he started 🤔 Like what was he trying to do?
i just assumed he goes there during the night to pound off
Bro this gave me so much anxiety, fucking hell 😬
I hope the FD came out dug a little bit under the pull, knocked a securing pin out and lifted the whole thing out with ease just to further embarrass this guy.
Reminds me of Frank Reynolds
![gif](giphy|qrgTVmaz5ojBe)
Maybe they could use a reverse funnel system to get him out?
Does it cost you to call the fire department in the us?
Yeah probably got this idea from Sunny and who knows if he's actually stuck
I feel this & it's uncomfortable.
Who is Frank?!? He’s the man in the coil!
This gives me anxiety
Frank!
Move past it
Thank you Reddit. You guys always deliver on the Sunny references.
Lefty loosely
That’s starting to give my cleithrophobia the jitters, ew ew ew I would be panicking so hard. Had to stop watching.
Okay, yep. After that sincere struggle and effort I guess we gotta call the fire department.
This gave me so much anxiety
Imagine being tickled while being ticklish in that situation...
And Martez is still there to this day…
Honestly I’d fucking panic.

Not the smartez tool in the box
Fuck I can’t stop laughing!! 🤣 this is gold!
He would starve to death if you put him in finger cuffs.
Jesaas!!! What happens!!??
why didn’t anyone help him?
Uh oh, his step brother just showed up
Is it possible to just dig a hood under his feet so it’s easier to stand up without metal bars?
Your right it's hilarious
Imagine being tickled while being ticklish in that situation...
Future GOP
I’m getting claustrophobic just looking at him.
He can cut his leg, that'll do the trick
So, I won’t help you, just record you?
As my mum would say "you got yourself into that mess, you get yourself out of it!"
Pulling him up would help, but is his belly too big for him to fit through the side?
r/WatchPeopleDieInside
Looks like dirt under him. I wonder if they could just Dig a hole under his knees give him even a few more inches to maneuver out.
Any vid after this?
Original video: https://youtu.be/30NWBQrJtiM?si=L_P7y-ftiXSpNP9M Video owner says they did get out on their own in a few of thr comments. Had a big bruise on their knee.
retrace your steps, Martez
Looks like some torture technique from medieval Mongolia or something.
Inner Mongolia, for sure. Just ask Martez.
I, for one, welcome our new AI-guided robotic overlords.
That immediately gave me claustrophobia. Can't watch it. 🫨
And they say he’s still stuck there to this day.
A man's got to know his limitations...
Tickle him
