Her co-workers attempted to free her but were unsuccessful.

They then transported her to the fire station in the back of a van, keeping the chair close to her nose to prevent further injury.

Firefighters keep mood light-hearted during rescue

Upon arrival, firefighters had the woman sit on the chair, facing the backrest, as they wheeled her towards the fire station.

Throughout the rescue, the team maintained a light-hearted atmosphere, likely to ease the woman’s tension before getting to the serious work.

They brought out a metal cutter, an axe, and a chainsaw, playfully pretending to use them for the operation.
