Boy’s head stuck in toilet

Firefighters in Essex came to the rescue of a young boy who had a toilet seat stuck on his head.

The boy, aged two and a half, and his worried mother went to Braintree fire station after she was unable to get the small trainer seat off his head, reports the BBC.

Firefighter Chris Cox said: “We put some dish washing liquid on his head and ears and it slid off nice as pie.

“The boy was very brave and didn’t make a fuss and once we had got the seat off he toddled away as happy as can be.”

Mr Cox added: “The boy had put his head through it and couldn’t get it out again, he came in here wearing it like a collar.

“His mum had tried to get it over his head but couldn’t budge it so she walked him down here and asked us to have a look at it and we went to work and we managed to get it off in no time.”

Man had bullet in heart for 40 years

A man shot in the heart by US troops during the Vietnam war has had the bullet removed – after 40 years.

Le Dinh Hung, 60, said from his bed in the Hanoi Heart Hospital: “I feel much better now. The chest pain has eased.”

He added: “I was very lucky to survive. People believe in their fate and I do too.”

When he was shot in 1968, the bullet tore through his stomach, hit his cardiac valve and lodged at the back of his heart.

Surgeons carried out a three hour operation to finally remove it after he went to hospital complaining of unbearable chest pains.

Dr Nguyen Sinh Hien, who also replaced his damaged heart valve with an artificial one, said: “It is the strangest case that I have ever seen.

“Normally a person with a bullet in the heart would die immediately if they didn’t have surgery right away.”

Hung was shot fighting for the communist North in Quang Tri province, near the former Demilitarised Zone that separated North and South Vietnam.

Surgeons tried to remove the bloodcaked bullet in 1969 but failed.

Despite being in constant pain, Hung, whose home is in the Ha Tay province, went on to work at a medical school and had three children with his wife.
