A curious man landed in a peculiar predicament when he managed to get a light bulb lodged in his mouth, only to discover it was impossible to remove in eastern China.

The video was filmed in the city of Yuyao in Zhejiang Province on July 25.

A flustered man, his face covered, dashed into the Yuyao City Fire and Rescue Brigade, seeking help from the firemen. With a light bulb's base protruding from his mouth, the man desperately tried to express his situation but was unable to articulate his words.

The firefighters calmed the visibly distressed man, and upon closer examination, discovered that the bulb was an LED type, with the glass part snugly fitting in the man's mouth. They understood that any accidental breakage could lead to severe mouth injuries.

Considering the delicate and dangerous nature of the situation, the firemen immediately decided to rush the man to the nearby Yuyao People's Hospital.

According to the doctor, the man, identified as Mr Chen, had the lightbulb stuck in his mouth for over two hours, unable to speak or swallow, with his front teeth tightly gripping the edge of the bulb. Any attempt to bite down could shatter the glass, endangering his internal organs.

After a careful examination, the doctors found that Chen's jaw was dislocated on one side. After widening his oral cavity with a mouth opener, they finally managed to dislodge the lightbulb, much to everyone's relief.

The bizarre ordeal turned out to be a result of Chen's misadventure. After watching a video of someone stuffing a lightbulb in their mouth and being unable to remove it, he decided to validate the claim by inserting a light bulb in his mouth, only to find himself in the same predicament.

7月25日，浙江余姚市，一名男子因为一时好奇，把灯泡塞进了嘴巴里，等他想拿出来的时候，才发现怎么拿都拿不出来。
当天下午5点左右，一名蒙着面的男子焦急地一路小跑来到余姚市消防救援大队，向消防员求助。只见男子想说话又说不出来，急得他在消防员面前手舞足蹈。随着男子把自己面部衣服摘下来那一刻，消防员发现男子的嘴巴露出一个灯泡的底座，而灯泡部分紧紧地塞进了男子嘴巴里，填充满整个口腔，这才让他想说话又说不出来。
消防员一边安抚男子的情绪，一边仔细观察男子的嘴巴，发现男子嘴巴里的这个灯泡是一个led灯，塞进嘴里的灯泡部位是玻璃材质，且与男子的口腔贴合，万一碎在里面，会划伤男子的口腔。消防员决定开车将男子送往附近的余姚人民医院。
余姚市人民医院接诊医生表示，送医时陈先生含着灯泡已有2个多小时，无法说话、咽口水，且门牙完全贴住灯泡边缘，要是把灯泡咬碎，玻璃渣会划破口腔，不慎吞咽则危及内脏。经检查，陈先生下颌一侧关节已脱位，两名医生用开口器继续扩张其口腔，灯泡终于有些松动，十分钟后终于将整个灯泡完好无缺地取了出来，大家这时才松了一口气，医生再将陈先生的下颌关节复位。
原来，男子看完一段有人将灯泡塞进嘴里、无法取出的视频后，为了验证，才将一个灯泡塞进自己嘴里，结果怎么也无法取出才求助消防大队。
