A man who tried to climb up 8ft high iron
railings was left dangling in agony after he became impaled on jagged
spikes.
Paramedics had to hold Richard Bamber up to
reduce the pressure on his wounds when they arrived at the scene near luxury
flats in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter on Saturday morning.
It is believed the 37-year-old, who is a
fork-lift truck driver by day and DJ by night, got trapped in the car park after
leaving a friend's flat before deciding to scale the iron fence.
Fire crews placed Mr Bamber in a harness - but
attempts to free the unlucky victim using hydraulic cutting equipment
failed.
Another attempt to rescue him also went
dangerously wrong when hot cutting equipment set fire to blankets being used to
shield the man's legs.
