I’m sure it was funny at first.

This guy was attending a New Year’s party in Mountain Brook, Alabama, when he decided to entertain the crowd by climbing into a decorative pot.

However, while people may have enjoyed this little bit at first, soon, they became worried as the dude couldn’t free himself. Plus, the pot was valued at $800 and really held the room together — so, understandably, the host didn’t want it broken to free our hero.

Eventually, they just broke the thing — but not before recording these fantastic clips.
