Firefighters are amazing people; they put their lives in danger for the safety of communities constantly, and their dedication is admirable.
Especially in situations like this, where a 15-year-old girl gets stuck in a giant Barney the Dinosaur head.
Twitter user @loganrisney1919 tweeted photos and video of his sister Darby Risney, who allegedly put the oversize costume head on to scare her friends.
Taking to AL.com, Darby’s mother Audrey Shannon said this:
“She put the Barney head on and when she sat down on the sofa to wait for them, it dropped.It slipped over her shoulders. When they finally came down, she got up and realized it had dropped so low, she couldn’t get it off. It was digging into her.”
The Trussville firefighters who had to attend the scene said it was hard to contain themselves, with Fire Lieutenant Vince Bruno saying,
“When they walked in, you couldn’t help but start laughing.We tried to be professional, and she was a little distraught, but we had to giggle about it.”
Behold the glory that is a small teenager stuck in a Barney head:

She had to be greased up to get out:
“She’s so little that when they lifted the head, it lifted her off the ground so they had to hold down her feet.And with the Vaseline on her arms, they said it was like trying to wrestle a greased pig.”
Her mum said the funniest part was, because the head came down to her elbows, it gave her “short little Barney arms” like a Tyrannosaurus Rex.
