Man Stuck In Baby Swing For 9 Hours

This story further  proves my theory that men will do amazingly stupid things when dared to by their friends.

This 21-year-old guy in California decided, after making a $100 bet with his friends, to lube himself up with laundry detergent and squeeze into a baby swing at a park (my first question is: what in the world were a group of 20-something guys doing hanging out at a playground?). Amazingly enough, he did get all of the way into the swing (and, I'm assuming, won his hundred bucks), but his victory was short-lived.

He got stuck in the swing (which shouldn't be a surprise to anyone, seeing as how baby swings aren't meant to hold full-grown men), and his friends thought that it would be funny to just leave him there. (You might want to look into getting new friends, dude.) Well, apparently they either forgot about him, or thought he managed to get himself out, or didn't really like him all that much in the first place, because the man ended up hanging there, trapped in that tiny swing, for 9 hours.

He was discovered when a groundskeeper heard screaming and found him hanging there like a detergent-covered idiot.

Firefighters managed to free him by cutting the chains on the swing, and the rest of the swing was cut off by a cast cutter at the hospital. The guy suffered non-life-threatening baby-swing-related injuries.
