TRAPPED AT HEIGHT: Rescue operation underway to free man stuck atop 290-foot tall smokestack in Carlisle, England.

The man was first spotted in the early hours of Monday morning hanging from the Dixon Chimney in Cumbria, in the north of England. He was reported to have become stuck just after 2:20 a.m., according to police.

The temperature in Carlisle is currently only 35 F and local eyewitnesses, who first responded with humor at the unlikely situation, have expressed concern as the man continues to be stuck.
