A man climbed under a cement truck to rescue a trapped elderly man and a boy who were run over by it in eastern China.

The CCTV video, shot in Shanghai on June 10, shows the truck knocking over an electric bike and rolling over the elderly man and five-year-old
boy riding it.

A man named Qiu ran to rescue the elderly man and the boy by laying down on the road and climbing underneath the vehicle.

Qiu took the boy out and handed him over to a woman before going to the other side of the truck to carry the elderly man out with other passersby.

Thanks to Qiu's help, the boy only had skin trauma. Although the elderly man suffered fractures, he was alright after being treated in hospital.
