Girl Gets Stuck in Washing Machine While Playing Hide and Seek

A game of hide-and-seek ended with a 911 call Thursday, as a Utah girl got stuck in a washing machine she used as her hiding spot, KSTU reports.

The girl was found by her aunt, who was home at the time, and tried to pull the girl out with no success. After using butter, peanut butter, and ice, as lubricants yielded no results, the mother called 911.

Emergency crews were eventually able to relieve the panicked child from her predicament.

Seems like a setting of COLD and Delicate might have freed her. :)

The only thing that could have made it even more agitating would have been the ‘on’ button . . .

Glad she was found. Sometimes that happens with kids playing in refrigerators stored in basements. She wont be doing that again.

My sister hid in the washer as a kid and required stitches on her bottom... Hmmm never made the news though?!?!

Did they think putting ice on her was going to shrink her?

Well, all she had to do was yell “Olly olly oxen free” and she would have be good as gold ,,,, Kids today I tell ya.

You know what this means?

[Kaslin]

I wonder if the peanut butter was crunchy?

[Kaslin]

And what flavor of Jelly doesn’t matter either

Whatever doesn’t kill you, just makes you smarter.

Did they think putting ice on her was going to shrink her?

LOL. Usually it's the hot setting that does it.

[kjam22]

So she’s 11 years old.... that’s like 5th grade?

People were more private back then, when you grew up. The immediate family would know about little sister’s mishap, Grandma might know also, months, and months later, but after all the healing had taken place. That way Grandma would not go into overdrive with worry and casting blame.

They should have added fabric softener at the rinse cycle.

[Kaslin]

Not only would have made her soft but also smell good

[Tax-chick]

Good point.

[P.O.E.]

Why should they have tried soaking her in Tide?

Because it’s too cold to soak her out Tide!
