My daughter and i were at the playground and i heard the cry for help, easily distinguishable from the normal sounds of the playground. I get there and here is this boy stuck in the baby swing. First off, I didn't shame or judge the boy. He was terrified and wanted out....BAD. But he was waaaaaay too old to be in that thing (around 9-10, I'd guess) and waaaaay too heavy (100 lbs give or take). Took me about 20 minutes to get him out. Mother finally showed up but couldn't help. I'm no weakling but MAN! Trying to tilt, cajole, and maneuver that dead weight hanging off the ground left me tired as hell! He was really stuck in there good! I believe he learned something from the experience. Nice workout for me though and the boy was no worse for wear.

I'd still be standing there laughing. Like if a midget slipped on the ice and needed help getting up.

In this case, some butter would help that child

Perfect time for a lecture on the evils of carbohydrates.

I wouldn’t have been able to help. I would’ve been crying with laughter

Good on you for helping out a kid in need, though

Honestly, now that you mention it, I'm surprised that there wasn't a gaggle of onlookers filming it. Maybe there was....who knows
