A funny video has emerged of a construction worker screaming in pain as one of his colleagues pulls out his front tooth.

The footage, shot on October 16 in London, shows a man tying a string around his colleague's achy tooth to pull it out.

"At work an one of the big two teeth you have at front of mouth was really hurting so me an team decided it would be quick an easy to pull straight out with strong string." the man explained.

The tooth was removed successfully, but not without pain.
