Read: This Guy Tried to Run Across the Ocean in a Plastic Bubble and It Was a DisasterIn what was apparently an extremely elaborate game of hide and seek, a 29-year-old Iowa man had to be rescued Thursday after he stripped naked and got himself stuck inside the chimney of a local business, the Carroll Daily Times Herald reports.When found and subsequently rescued by local authorities from the Carroll Redemption Center's chimney, the man, Jordan Kajewski, pulled out an excuse kids caught somewhere weird have been using for ages—he said he was just playing a game of hide and seek.Apparently, nine hours prior to Kajewski's rescue, Brad Sapp was working late at the Carroll Redemption Center when he thought he heard a bone-chilling whisper say "Get out of here." Sapp returned home to tell his wife, Carrie, of the bizarre encounter when she reportedly began to tease him for being afraid of ghosts.The next morning, Carrie Sapp was walking past the chimney when she heard Kajewski's cries for help herself. "I'm in your chimney," he shouted. "I was playing hide and seek with my cousin! Don't call the cops, I just need help getting out."Most of the time, when people say "don't call the cops" it means you should absolutely call the cops, and that is exactly what Sapp did.Close to a dozen fire fighters arrived on the scene to liberate Kajewski from his ashy purgatory, but at least we can assume he won the hide and seek game.
