The clip shows Jimmy Swingler, one half of popular show TGFbro, getting his head caught inside a cement-filled microwave.
At first his friends find it funny, as they laugh at the unfortunate situation he is faced with.
But, their smiles soon fade as they realise they cannot free the man and they may need professional assistance.

After an hour and a half of attempting to remove the common household item, the group finally realise that they will need to call the emergency services.
Ambulance and a fire rescue teams were quick to the scene at the vlogger's base in the West Midlands, reacting within 5 minutes to the distressed plea for help.
The fire service’s official account tweeted: “We’re seriously unimpressed.
“Five of our firefighters were tied up for an hour this afternoon, freeing a YouTube prankster whose head had been cemented inside a microwave oven.

“This was clearly a call-out which might have prevented us from helping someone else in genuine accident”

Commander Shaun Dakin, officer in charge of the West Midlands Fire Service crew who responded, said: “As funny as this sounds, this young man could quite easily have suffocated or have been seriously injured.”
He added: “Taking the microwave apart was tricky, because a lot of it was welded.
“We video-called our technical rescue colleagues for advice and eventually managed to get him unstuck.
“It took us nearly an hour to free him.
"All of the group involved were very apologetic, but this was clearly a call-out which might have prevented us from helping someone else in genuine accidental."
The 22-year-old had planned to use the electrical appliance as a mould, filling it with seven bags of Polyfilla, and heating the mixture before he realised that he couldn’t free himself.
