A woman’s ring slipped into the cracks of her seat on a Singapore Airlines (SIA) flight, but cabin crew successfully retrieved it using an improvised tool.

In a post on July 14, TikTok user @cforcassan shared footage of the cabin crew carrying out the “rescue mission” with the help of a sickle-like device that they fashioned themselves.

Another steward was then seen crouching beneath the seat, using a flashlight and the makeshift tool to retrieve the ring.
