“I thought to myself ‘I’m not leaving this’ and I jumped down to get it. I wasn’t really even stuck, I just need somebody to help lift me out but my mum got all panicky. When they pulled me out I ran straight home and jumped in the bath. I think it was just water but I wasn’t taking any chances,” she told the paper.
