Checkout the ‘Dinosaur-headed’ damsel-in-distress
A teen girl in Alabama spent 45 minutes stuck in an enormous barney costume head on Sunday. However, an effective intervention by the local firefighters cut it off so she could breathe freely.
Darby Risner, 15, got stuck into the friendly dinosaur’s plush purple head when she found it in the basement of her church during a sleepover with friends.
She slid into the barney just so that she could spook her friends, however, ended up getting one hell of a scare on self.
The head ended up sliding past her shoulders and getting stuck.
“Initially I’m not (claustrophobic), but when it came to being stuck inside Barney, that changed,” Risney told Dylan Dreyer on TODAY Wednesday.
Luckily, her brother Logan was there to do what brothers are supposed to do — record it all for Twitter and Snapchat.

Four friends and a parent tried to pull her out off the giant barney head, unsuccessfully though. At one point, they applied Darby’s shoulders with Vaseline — but to no avail. Meanwhile, it became hotter and more uncomfortable for Risner. Finally, the family decided to seek the assistance of Trussville Fire Department for help, and Darby and her friends piled in her mom’s car to drive over to the station.

After a few unsuccessful tugs, the firefighters cut opened into the dinosaur dome.
“It was actually really overwhelming and I was kind of stunned to see how far that it had gone, but I mean, really, it’s just a big laugh,” Risner said.
