Who would think that watching a man stuck in his seatbelt could be so entertaining?

Maine resident Clint Chadbourne has become the latest viral video star thanks to a family member who filmed him after his seat belt locked and he was unable to free himself from the car.

WCSH reports that the family was returning from a road trip when they decided to make a pit stop and the unfortunate incident occurred.

There were multiple relatives on the scene to assist, but they were too busy laughing to offer much help.

To Chadbourne’s credit, he stayed in fairly good spirits throughout the ordeal. He was eventually freed, with injuries only to his dignity.

Bonnie Chadbourne posted the cellphone video to her Facebook page, where it has generated over 600,000 shares and millions of views.
