Toilet Swallows Hand After Shower Slip
Thu Oct 17, 1:03 PM ET

MILAN (Reuters) - A guest at a hotel in Milan had reason to be grateful for having his mobile phone in the bathroom after ending up with his hand stuck down the toilet for more than an hour on Thursday.



The unnamed 65-year-old slipped as he stepped out of the shower and accidentally jammed his hand down the funnel of the toilet as he tried to break his fall, rescue workers said.


Still naked, he was saved by firemen more than an hour later after calling an emergency number from his phone. The firemen had to dismantle the lavatory to set his hand free.


He was taken to hospital with broken ribs and a sore arm.
