After a worker was crushed and died while working on another gadget in central London, a second telescopic public urinal was taken down.

Firefighters released him near Cambridge Circus on Friday afternoon, but he was later declared dead there.

Pop-up restrooms are kept below ground and elevated hydraulically to street level for usage at night.

A telescoping urinal on Villiers Street, according to Westminster City Council, has been closed out of caution.

Near 13:05 GMT, crews were dispatched to the incident at the intersection of Shaftesbury Avenue and Charing Cross Road. By 15:40 GMT, the guy had been released.

To free him, firefighters utilized a winch.

The urinal on Villiers Street has been closed, according to Westminster City Council.

The municipal government first started using the devices approximately 20 years ago in an effort to deter people from urinating on the street.
