THIS is the moment a woman falls into her green wheelie bin – landing herself in A&E with a fractured shoulder.
The footage shows Jane Green washing and soaping down one of her bins when the wheels rolled out from underneath her and crashed to the ground.
She was reaching towards the bottom of the bin at the time so the angle of the fall resulted in a broken shoulder.
A bystander overheard Jane call for her husband and came rushing to her aid.
Jane was whisked away to hospital in an ambulance – where an x-ray confirmed a fractured shoulder before she was sent away with a sling.
Jane, a former secretary from Carshalton, Surrey, said: “I’d soaked it in water and then it was a lovely day, and I thought I’d give it a final clean and that’s when it happened.
“I put my head in and then the bin slid away and I fell inside it!
“It was on its side, and I clambered out of it and knew that I’d done something quite dramatic.
“It’s still very painful now.”
When the ambulance arrived, Jane had to have her jumper cut away so the paramedics could access her shoulder.
She said: “I fractured my shoulder – I couldn’t move.
“I won’t be going near that wheelie bin again!”
