CHINA FLOODS: DRIVER CLINGS ON FOR LIFE

-
An excavator from a Chinese building site was drafted in to save a driver stranded in rising flood waters in China.
A driver was lucky to escape alive moments before his 4x4 vehicle was washed away in flood waters.
The man had been trying to drive across a river in Fengjie County, in south west China's Chongqing when he was caught up by fierce torrents.









With the water rapidly rising, the driver managed to climb out of the side window, hanging on to the door and leaning into the current in a desperate effort to avoid being swept away.
At first, onlookers tried to rescue him using a rope and lifebuoy but then an excavator was brought in.
As the excavator reached towards the driver, he jumped in the bucket.
But he was still holding onto the rope and, as his vehicle was swept away with the rope tangled around it, he was nearly dragged away too.
Luckily, he untangled the rope from the vehicle and was carried safely to shore in the excavator's bucket.

His vehicle was later recovered.
