So, today's perusal of foreign newspapers has yielded solid gold. And, I just realized that my description in the post title sounds a bit macabre, but fear not! The head is indeed attached to a body. A man in Aberdeen, Scotland (currently my favorite man in all of Scotland) got himself wedged into a trash can, or "rubbish bin" if you speak British.
Heaven bless whomever decided to memorialize this on film:

The best part of this photo is the person in the lower right corner, grasping his friend on the shoulder and pointing with great animation. That person is a kindred spirit to me.
I truly hope those are the kindest, most understanding firemen in Scotland. Happy Monday, everyone.

I would have fallen over laughing if I had been there for this. Totally convinced.
Update! Apparently he was just trying to retrieve his hat:

I'm glad he's got a sense of humor about it. Delightful.
Um.. Have you heard the story of Mikey getting his head stuck in a trash can? Laura and I couldn't control ourselves and we were in charge. He was playing hide and seek and thought that was a good place to hide. It was at Portage Park and the life guard had to get him out because he was stuck and we couldn't get him out.
I have heard the Mikey story before and yet I am sitting here unable to control my laughter as I read it.
I think I just woke up Brian.
Seriously, I may start crying.
And yet no one thought to memorialize that on digital film. What a waste!
Oh, I'm laughing again!
Can't you just picture him screaming for help and Jennifer and Laura unable to walk?!
And you people yell at me for laughing when people fall down.
