A DIY dentist used a pair of pliers to pull out a wedding singer's cracked tooth after he broke it while eating a hog roast.
Sam Johnson, frontman of wedding band The Sound, was due to play at the reception on Polperro, Cornwall, when a crunchy piece of crackling left him unable to sing.
The top molar was left hanging from his gums - but instead of backing out of performing the brave 29-year-old opted to subject himself to some DIY dentristy.
Bandmates found a pair of pliers in a toolkit in the back of their van, with Sam downing a Jagerbomb as a "painkiller".
Then drummer Tristan Fry volunteered to carry out the stomach-churning deed while the ordeal was filmed.
Bass player Aaron Morgan told the Evening Standard they were just about to perform when dental disaster struck on Saturday night.
He said: "We had set up and done our sound check. It was about 20 minutes before we started.
"The couple had put on a hog roast. So Sam was munching down on a bit of crackling when it happened.
"We looked in his mouth at his tooth and it had just cracked in half. It looked pretty bad."
The band quickly realised they had no time to find a dentist so Sam told them "just do it yourselves."
Aaron added: "So we set up in the back of the van and as you can see eventually we got it out."
Before Sam had been unable to sing. Now he was "much more comfortable", Aaron said.
"Fairplay to him - he's a proper lad," Aaron added.
