Toddlers are nothing if not curious, just ask the Orange County (New York) Fire Department.

Fire fighters had a very memorable call for help this week after one-year-old Brace'Yn, from the town of Walden, decided to put his child sized toilet seat over his head... and got stuck.

His mum Jada called firefighters after she was unable to free him, and filmed the whole scenario on TikTok.

Jada can then be heard asking a sheepish looking Brace'Yn: "Why would you do that?!".

The fire department saw the funny side, sharing the call out on their Facebook page, where they revealed they initially thought they were responding to an adult.
