BERLIN (AP) — An American exchange student who got stuck in a giant vagina sculpture was freed by firefighters in southwestern Germany.

Tuebingen fire service official Markus Mozer said Monday that the young man slipped as he tried to climb into the stone sculpture to pose for a photo.

He couldn't free himself, so the fire service was called. Four firefighters eased him out of the sculpture.

The incident happened on Friday and the student's name wasn't released.

Mozer says no damage was done to the sculpture, created by Peruvian-born artist Fernando de la Jara.
