A 33 year old father in the U.K decided to dabble in some DIY dentistry.
He removed an infected tooth with a pair of pliers after his routine dentist denied him an emergency dental appointment.
He's had issue with the particular tooth for the past two years even had a root canal.
After calling 111 emergency services (equivalent to 911) he was told not to leave his home until the tooth was restricting his breathing.
He decided to go on YouTube and search how to pull his tooth.
He took a couple shots of whiskey and told is 11 year old son to monitor him and he pulled his tooth out!
He described the process as "bloody painful."
