Firemen Risk Lives To Rescue Partially Buried Workers

This is the moment firemen risk their lives at the bottom of a partially caved in ditch to free workmen half buried during a construction site cave-in.

The frantic firefighters are seen trying to shore up the sides in the pit as they use spades, shovels and even their hands to free the three buried men.

The trio were left covered in earth and mud when the under-construction sewer project they were working on suddenly collapsed in the city of Shangqiu in Central China’s Henan Province on the morning of 21st October.
