KENOSHA, Wisconsin (AP) - A 21-year-old man was trapped in a tank of chocolate for about two hours early Friday, police said.

Capt. Randy Berner said the worker said he got into the tank at the Debelis Corp. to unplug it and became trapped waist-deep in the chocolate.

"It was pretty thick. It was virtually like quicksand," Berner said, and co-workers, police and firefighters were not able to get him out until the chocolate could be thinned out.

"It's the first time I've ever heard of anything like this," the police captain said. The worker said his ankles were sore after the incident, and he was taken to a hospital for treatment of minor injuries, Berner said.

Why don't those accidents ever happen to me? I walk through a bog, fall into muck up to my hip.....I could never eat my wait out of that one?

I DO hope if it ever happens to me. I want rich milk chocolate, none of that dark chocolate that is healthy for me. If I'm going to die trying to get out (or stay in) let it at least be a flavour I like!
