How do you get knickers out of a hoover pipe?
My sister is an idiot: she is 14 and hoovered up a pair of knickers because our 15-year-old cousin dared her too, now they're stuck in the pipe. Turning the hoover on makes a funny noise, and doesn't move them any closer to the dust bag.
Any suggestions on how to sort this 'issue'?
Thanks
P.S. We have tried using a long stick from outside, blowing into it and using a skipping rope, and sticking fingers down too.
Oh, and my sister has now broke the skipping rope, it's a liquid glitter one, and the liquid is all over the floor.

That's funny! Ok in all seriousness, If you've tried everything, then I can only suggest either taking it to the shop and have it taken a apart, or get a new hoover.

Thanks, normally I think of a hanger in situations like this.
And yes, that does mean my sister does stuff like this all the time.

Well you're certainly in a bit of a pickle!
Anyway, like Ryberto said, try using a hanger or maybe even a walking stick?

No, we couldn't get them out but it's our cousin's hoover so we told her about it and she said she'll have a go.
We haven't heard anything yet so I'm going to ask her next time we see her if they are out or not.
