Panicked mum's desperate plea after son climbs inside toy machine

An adventurous toddler found himself among a mountain of plush toys after he climbed inside a claw machine at a shopping centre in Brazil.

The sight perplexed onlookers who witnessed the boy playing inside the giant toy box, but no one was more shocked than the little boy's mum who pleaded with him to come out.

In a video shared on TikTok by Sky News, the fearless boy is seen bouncing up and down in excitement as he explores the inside of the toy machine.

He doesn't appear too bothered by his mum tapping on the glass and pleading for him to come out.

It seems she attempts to guide him back through the flap in which he presumably entered, but he continues to ignore her demands.

Before long, a large crowd eventually forms around the glass box as they watch the little boy play inside.

Security was eventually called to help disperse the crowds, Sky News reported.

And in the end, the boy was recovered unharmed with a new soft toy to take home.

TikTok users baffled: 'How?'

The crazy scene left TikTok users wondering how the toddler got in to begin with.

"How in the world did he even get in," one questioned.

While another joked, "a future hacktivist".

Some said the "machine needs to be more secure".

"Nothing like picking your own toy, well done," someone else said.

The same thing happened in Queensland in May when a little boy climbed inside a toy machine at a Coles store in Cairns.

Firefighters from Cairns South Fire and Rescue station were called to the scene to rescue the boy and were able to free him within minutes back through the shoot in which he entered.
