In the video, Mom explains that her son, Grant, got his arm stuck in a vase while reaching for a toy he’d lost inside.
Thus, the self-proclaimed “ashamed” mom had to drive over to the fire station to seek their help.
She walks into the station and bashfully asks if the firefighters could help her — and immediately, the friendly team goes to assess the situation.
“Oh my goodness! What did you do?” one firefighter asks in a jokingly disapproving tone as he looks at the toddler’s arm.
The team grabs a bottle of dish soap and gets to work, gently freeing his arm from its trap.
They even retrieve the toy he was after — a small plastic flute. “That’s what we were huntin, wasn’t it?” the firefighter asks with a laugh.
In the end, Grant was left completely unscathed and unfazed, Mom was happy, and the firefighters were hailed as heroes by everyone on TikTok.
