A 6-year-old girl fell into a small river and was saved by a passing-by delivery boy. The incident occurred in a small village in Zhejiang Province, China and it was caught on video and posted to Weibo, China’s version of Twitter, on March 11.

In the video, a young girl in an orange shirt and red-plaid skirt steps down a stone staircase towards the water. She is holding a pole, and appears to be using it to stabilize herself as she lowers one foot towards the water.
