Beijing - The water current in the drainage is so strong that the boy gets pulled along the open drainage channel.

An 11-year-old boy in China was miraculously saved after he was swept away into a fast-flowing drainage amid heavy rainfall.
The shocking CCTV footage shows the boy walking on one side of the road almost flooded with rain water when he suddenly slips and falls into an open storm drainage.

Fortunately, a black car is seen stopping when the boy falls into the drainage and two men hurriedly run after the boy in a bid to save him. The footage shows other bystanders rushing to help the two men and manage to pull out the boy from the open drainage hole.
