Australian authorities rescue man trapped inside washing machine

Australian authorities have rescued a 22-year old man after he was stuck inside a washing machine for three hours.

"This job was interesting as the crew had not performed a washing machine rescue before," the Bankstown Fire Station posted on social media.

Local media reported on Wednesday the man is mildly autistic and had been trapped inside a washing machine before.

Rescue crews dismantled the washing machine, piece by piece, after the man had trapped his legs inside the front-loader washing machine for three hours.
