Woman mortified after getting trapped naked in a sunbed and had to be rescued by firefighters

A woman said she feared for her life as she was rescued by firefighters after getting trapped in a sunbed naked. Natalie Rene, 33, says she was in the nude when she was rescued at Tanning House by Miami Sun in Loughborough, Leicestershire.

She described the experience as like being in a coffin - and compared it to a scene from a film. Luckily, law student Natalie managed to switch off the UV lights as soon as she realised she was shut in.

But she said the wait for help was "horrifying" - and has put her off sunbeds for life. Natalie, a mum-of-four, said: "I thought, 'This is going to be my coffin'. The lights were on and I thought, 'I'm going to burn to death like in the movie Kick-Ass.'
