Firefighters were called to a school to save the blushes of a 10-year-old boy who had got his head stuck in a traffic cone while playing.
After trying to shift the cones themselves for half an hour, teachers at the school in Johor, Malaysia, contacted the emergency services to help prize it off the youngster's head.
Following a delicate 20-minute operation with a cutter to remove the cone, which resembled an old dunce's hat, Pontian Fire and Rescue Station were able to gently separate the pupil's head from the cone.

Operations commander Mohd Ezal Azman said: "Six firefighters rushed to the scene with an SOS Rescue Tool after receiving a call about the incident at 1.28 pm.
"We spent 20 minutes freeing the 10-year-old victim by cutting the cone using the rescue tool."

However, the woman was left red faced when firefighters found her vibrator was behind a worrying burning smell in her flat.
The embarrassed sex toy owner pretended to have no idea what the device was when pointed out, according to the emergency services.
When it was established the burning smell was coming from an overheating vibrator, the woman apparently replied: "Wow, what's that?"
