For those of us who hate house work and like to enjoy a life of leisure there can be no better house hold appliance then the robot vacuum. The machine will make its way around your house unaided by a human hand hovering up those evil dust bunnies with out you even lifting a finger.
But what happens when those machines start to fight back? Well one 52 year old woman from South Korea found out first hand what its like to feel the wrath of a once subservient robot.
The woman named Yoon was, for reasons best known to herself, indulging in a nap on the floor whilst her robot vacuum cleaner was working hard on her behalf. At some point during its duty the machine decided that her hair was either good to eat or that it resembled dust and it ingested said hair and refused to let go. Yoon was unable to remove her hair from the bot and was forced to call the emergency services to help free her.
Four emergency works from Changwon city fire department arrived and after half an hour managed to free Yoon from the savage jaws of the hoover gone bad. Luckily she managed to escape any serious or permanent injury.
The fire depart said of the incident "This case was quite special. We had seen
weird things, but this was a very weird call that we received."
The fate of the hoover is unknown.
