Police and London underground staff members worked to free the young man from his entrapment at Covent Garden tube station.

A 'fare-dodger' who reportedly tried to jump the barriers at a London Underground station really was struck by karma after his manhood became stuck in the doors. The man's screams of agony can be heard as people line up to witness the incident and help pull him free (pictured)

Crowds gathered around the gates to watch as the man's screams became louder and some called for 'butter' to free him.

Finally, officers are able to free the man to cheers from the growing crowd as the man is let down safely.

Before he staggers away the man can be seen turning back on himself to hug the members of staff and police officers who helped.

At first his friends seem to be trying to calm him down but as the video continues and the audience expands, a jeering nature seems to occur.
