Toddler almost killed in dryer prank

A U.S. father’s prank on his child went wrong when the washing machine he’d placed his son in suddenly started to whir into action. CCTV footage at a launderette shows the man lifting the boy into the machine after seeing a sign reading “Junior wash $2.95.” The prank almost turned to disaster when the door locked automatically and the machine started to spin. The video shows the mother slamming her hands down on a table in desperation as the man fails to rescue his son. The toddler was eventually freed by a member of staff after more than a minute, having suffered minor injuries. Source: The Korea Herald
