A Missouri man has been rescued after becoming trapped in a porta-potty waste tank, forcing disgusted firefighters cut him free.

The Kansas City Fire Department was called to the scene in central Kansas City at around 11.20am on Tuesday, according to an alert from the Citizen app. Backup including an ambulance were summoned when the severity of the situation became clear.

A video of the rescue, which was recorded by a man named Eddie Bejarano, has garnered millions of views on social media.

Bejarano made a follow-up video explaining that he had gone to pick up eight porta-potty units when he saw that one of them was being used.

He said he knocked on the door and told whoever was inside to hurry up before he heard someone 'playing with the water.' He then heard yelling inside and told the man to get out, and he replied that he could not.

A police officer happened to pass by and asked if Bejarano needed help. He explained the situation and opened the porta-potty for the officer.

'At first we see no one in there. It looked like an empty unit, and then all of a sudden the toilet lid just popped open [and the] dude came out of the toilet ******* wet, filled with poop,' Bejarano said.

I have one question, How ⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️

[Texas Eagle]

Did his name rhyme with Plaham Gratner?

[Equine1952]

He dropped his brand new iPhone 17 from T-Mobile right?

I’ve heard of homeless people sleeping in porta potties for safety but not in the crap tank.

[NurdlyPeon]

And I had always thought that patriotism was the last refuge of the scoundrel.

[Texas Eagle]

Could’ve been worse. Could’ve found himself in Oakland.

[UnwashedPeasant]

That was a crappy cliffhanger.

You made me click.

[Organic Panic]

At least it wasn’t Detroit.

Just one of those things that happens out of the blue.

I know it’s disgusting, but maybe he was huffing.

‘At first we see no one in there. It looked like an empty unit, and then all of a sudden the toilet lid just popped open [and the] dude came out of the toilet ******* wet, filled with poop,’ Bejarano said. I guess he wanted to take a swim.

Quote of the week:

“At one point, a firefighter said: ‘Lean your head through the hole!’ The man replied: ‘I can’t, dumb f***!’

‘I’m the dumb f*** while [you’re] sitting in a f***ing urinal,’ the firefighter said. “

I LOVE that firefighter’s reply!!!

[Morgana]

The video gives one a whole new respect for firefighters.

[SunkenCiv]

This should put an end to all those “Florida Man” jokes.

[MayflowerMadam]

He should’ve taken this opportunity to pleasure himself.

It is unclear how the man became trapped in the porta-potty's waste tank.

The only compelling part of the story.

Great reporting, Daily Fail.
