More Manhole Danger

Coming on the heels of a Long Island teen falling into a manhole while texting comes this story of a German man who managed to wedge himself into an open hole after a night of alleged brew-ha-ha-ing.

No one knows how the cover came to be removed, and Gerhard Wilder claims that he didn't do it, but really, can you rely on the testimony of a man found stuck in a grate?

Wilder needed the assistance of firefighters to extricate himself from his tight situation. If only they could use their jaws-of-life to pry away the cape of shame Wilder will now wear in public for the rest of his natural life.

And yes - I realize that a manhole and a grate are two different things. Poetic license, okay?
