Jack Ass Father Puts Son Inside Working Washing Machine

Video Captured By Surveillance Camera

A practical joke nearly turned tragic when a man put a young child into a washing machine at a laundromat.

The incident was captured on surveillance video posted to YouTube, dated May 11, 2012. The footage shows a couple, who appear to be with their son, getting ready to do their wash at a laundromat.
The video shows the man, reportedly his father, scoop up the tot, put him into one of the front-loading washing machines, then shut the door.

The machine then starts running. The man panics and tries to open it, but the automatic lock keeps it closed.

Both parents try frantically to open the washing machine while the boy tumbles around inside, his tiny feet with white shoes seen tumbled over each other.
An attendant manages to access the back of the machine and turns it off, allowing the parents to retrieve the child.

Though the boy was trapped inside the washing machine for over a minute, he suffered only minor injuries, according to the person who posted the video to YouTube.
