A British toddler had to be freed by firefighters after getting his head stuck in a toilet seat.

The 18-month-old tot decided to use the seat as a hat but it soon slipped down over his ears and got stuck.

So his worried mother phoned the emergency services, who came round to rescue the little lad.

The boy was really brave and sat still so we could work. He seemed just fine afterwards and we were happy to see him free of his toilet seat.

Firefighter Steve Seary, whose team used specialist cutting equipment to free the youngster, said: "He had been wearing the training toilet seat as a hat and his Mum turned her back and then he slipped it down over his ears and it was stuck, but it wasn't tight or causing him any difficulties.

"The boy was really brave and sat still so we could work. He seemed just fine afterwards and we were happy to see him free of his toilet seat."
