Most of us have been guilty of doing stupid things when we were younger (most, but not all of us have grown out of these types of antics), but I have never seen this. In the second video he is whining "somebody get a hammer". This is funny, but would have been hilarious with some of my running buddies around back in the day. I can think of a half a dozen things I might have done with him had I been there in my younger life. LOL
Connor Padgett, the Birmingham architect who got stuck in a vase at a New Year’s Eve party, doesn’t feel much like a genie.
“From what I’ve heard, the genie is able to come out of the (expletive),” Padgett said in an interview on the JortsCenter podcast about the incident. “I don’t have that superpower.”
Padgett said he got into the vase after two other people at the party had successfully gotten in, then out of it, as part of a game that someone thought up.
“One person had gotten into it,” he said. “I saw them get out of it beautifully. Another person who slightly had a bigger ass than I do (got in and back out).”
That convinced him to try the party trick that he would soon regret.
“If they can get into it and get out of it, I figure, hell, I can too,” Padgett said.
“I had boots on,” he said. “My boots were kind of like the heels of them were pushed up and pushing my knees … I think that’s what locked my knees into place.”
Finally convinced of the urgency of his situation, a man he met that night began chiseling at the urn and broke it.
Then Padgett took his pants off.
“When I stood up, I could feel the shards of that vase in my ass crack,” he said. “I said, ‘I gotta get these off right now.’”
Padgett found out later that video of his predicament went viral, with more than 14 million views by Monday.
“Well, that’s fabulous,” Padgett said of his reaction.
Padgett said he has since tried to apologize to the people at the party.
“I’m saying the most foul things, cussing everybody out,” he said.
“I’ve tried my best to apologize to everybody that I talked ugly to that night,” Padgett said. “I felt so bad cussing everybody.”
