Teen’s Nine-Hour Doorknob Ordeal: A Bizarre Rescue in Nakhon Ratchasima

In an unexpected turn of events that sounded like a scene straight out of a slapstick comedy, a 16-year-old girl from Nakhon Ratchasima’s Isaan province found herself in a peculiar predicament. Her young digit—specifically, her little finger—was unceremoniously trapped in a doorknob for over nine hours. Yes, nine long, excruciating hours! As you can imagine, it wasn’t the kind of DIY project anyone would sign up for voluntarily.

The drama unfolded as the family rushed her to the bustling Maharat Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital at the ungodly hour of 1:50 AM, with both teenager and an obstinate doorknob in tow. Try as they might, their attempts to dislodge the metallic menace at home met with zero success, forcing a most unusual hospital entry. Can you envision that entrance scene? The girl, exhausted but relieved to be in expert hands, still sporting what was practically an ‘unplanned metallic accessory’ around her finger.

But how, pray tell, did such an everyday object become the villain of the piece? Well, it started innocently enough with a broken bedroom doorknob. Our vastly imaginative heroine decided to take matters into her own hands—quite literally—by probing the mechanism in hopes of a quick fix. But, alas, her ambitions were swiftly quashed when her finger refused to budge, its newfound residence surrounded by unforgiving metal. To add insult to injury, the finger began to swell, transforming an awkward situation into a painful ordeal.

As the situation spiraled, the hospital’s medical team opted for backup, enlisting the expertise of the Hook 31 Nakhon Ratchasima Rescue Foundation. Armed with the kind of tools you’d expect to find in an industrial workshop—a plasma cutter and an angle grinder—they arrived on the scene around 11 AM. The procedure was no walk in the park. Each maneuver was executed with surgeon-like precision to avoid any further damage to the brave teenager’s finger. Three injections of anesthesia were deemed necessary to keep the pain manageable, making the rescue operation feel a bit like a high-stakes thriller.

Eventually, after an hour of meticulous work, during which time the girl lost considerable blood, her heroic finger was finally liberated. The clock marked nine hours of imprisonment. Far more than any doorknob confinee should have to endure. As we speak, she is on the road to recovery, both physically and mentally, from what must have been both a traumatic and memorable episode.

Interestingly enough, this is not the only time rescues of this nature have made headlines in Thailand. A similar incident lit the tiny screens of Phuket just last month when a 15-year-old lad’s hand was caught in—not a doorknob—but an industrial meat grinder! After an eagle-eyed bystander’s swift interference, the rescue teams, once again, managed a timely extraction. Still, the details of the boy’s recovery remain undisclosed, leaving us wishing him well on his journey to healing.

Yes, life can indeed throw curveballs when we least expect them. But through the twists and turns of fate—and occasionally faulty furniture—what stands out is the relentless spirit of those who come together to lend a helping hand, or in this case, a helping finger. Here’s to hope, resilience, and the unsung heroes wielding plasma cutters in the proverbial background, transforming potential tragedies into tales of triumph.

    How on Earth did this girl get her finger stuck for 9 hours? This is insane!

    • Greg W. May 27, 2025

      I know, right? It’s like something out of a comedy sketch! But jokes aside, it must have been terrifying for her.

    • Samantha T. May 27, 2025

      Yeah, I can’t even imagine. At least she’s safe now.

  2. SmartAlex May 27, 2025

    The hospital using a plasma cutter sounds like overkill. Couldn’t they use something less drastic?

    • Linda K. May 27, 2025

      They needed precision work to save the finger. Sometimes you need the right tools for the job.

    • SmartAlex May 27, 2025

      I guess, but it just seems strange. What if it slipped?

    • Linda K. May 27, 2025

      That’s the risk, but trained professionals know what they’re doing.

  3. Ben9 May 27, 2025

    Poor girl. I can’t believe this happened! Where were her parents when this went down?

  4. June O. May 27, 2025

    I blame cheap furniture. These modern doorknobs are just accidents waiting to happen.

    • Allen Q. May 27, 2025

      Doorknobs have been around forever. People just need to be more careful.

  5. ProfessorMiller May 27, 2025

    This highlights the importance of basic mechanical understanding. If the girl had known more about how doorknobs work, she might have avoided this ordeal.

  6. ShirleyB May 27, 2025

    Sounds like a Hollywood plot—except it’s real life! Props to the rescuers for stepping up!

    I’ve heard of dumb challenges online, but this beats all of them.

  8. Leah_P May 27, 2025

    Honestly, this just makes me paranoid about touching anything mechanical now.

    • Bobby_J May 27, 2025

      Understandable, but don’t let fear control you. Accidents happen rarely.

    • Leah_P May 27, 2025

      True, but it’s still unsettling.

  9. VictorZ May 27, 2025

    How often do things like this really happen? It’s news because it’s rare.

  10. AmySocial May 27, 2025

    We should focus on teaching safety handling from a young age. Mystery injuries could be avoided with better education.

    • Tom B. May 27, 2025

      Like they say, knowledge is power. But how do you prep someone for something so bizarre?

  11. tinkerbell_333 May 27, 2025

    Imagine being trapped like that for hours… I would go insane!

  12. Rachelle M. May 27, 2025

    It’s remarkable how quick-thinking and well-prepared the rescue team was.

    • Frank L. May 27, 2025

      Indeed, emergency services are heroes in so many quiet ways we overlook.

  13. BennyTheJet May 27, 2025

    Lucky she didn’t lose the finger. That would’ve been tragic.

  14. Noah May 27, 2025

    The more I read stories like these, the more I worry about small accidents escalating into something serious.

  15. Mary C. May 27, 2025

    Her endurance is commendable. Nine hours is a long time to be trapped.

    • Andy S. May 27, 2025

      It’s an impressive level of patience and resilience. Shows a lot of character.

    • Mary C. May 27, 2025

      Absolutely, not everyone could handle it so calmly.

  16. CuriousG May 27, 2025

    Good thing it wasn’t something worse like a meat grinder. That story from last month sent chills!
