Yes, any day it is just a hand they are removing something from is a good day. Some people like putting rings on inappropriate body parts, and when that ring is made of something really hard like titanium it gets a bit tricky.

Although kids manage to get themselves stuck in all sorts of interesting things. Plug holes and bits of bikes often, toilet seats stuck on heads occassionally, hands in lolly vending machines.
