Video footage shows a child rescued from a floating human hamster ball after it was swept out to sea by a brave onlooker.
But the brave rescuer takes off his clothes and enters the chilly winter water, swimming out to the young boy and reaching the floating see-through inflatable ball, pushing it towards the shore as the footage ends.
The human hamster ball, also known as a zorb ball, can be seen in the footage slowly drifting away.
The incident took place in Wenzhou, in China’s Zhejiang province, which is located by the Oujiang River, on the coast of the East China Sea on 12th January.
