Firefighters rescue toddler who fell into deep tube well in northern China

Firefighters in northern China rescued a two-year-old after he fell into a seven-metre-deep tube well on July 6.

The video, filmed in the city of Shenyang in Liaoning Province, shows firefighters using a portable air supply device to send oxygen to the toddler trapped in the deep well.

In another clip, firefighters are seen using shovels, hoes and excavators dig the mud away from the tube well.

After removing four sections of tubes, firefighters finally took the toddler out of the well.

The boy was rescued after a three-hour operation and he was sent to hospital.

Fortunately he was not injured seriously.
