Firefighter in northern China rescued a tourist trapped on a nearly 400-foot-high zip line due to equipment failure.

The video, shot in the city of Xingtai in Hebei Province on May 12, shows a man dangling helplessly in the middle of the perilously high zip line.

A fireman was seen putting on safety equipment and attached to the ropes before sliding over to approach the man.

After the fireman put a helmet and other protective gear on the tourist, as well as checking the man's condition, other firefighters pulled the safety ropes slowly to bring them back to safety.

After around 30 minutes, the man was rescued successfully. Fortunately, he was not injured.

The video was provided by local fire brigade with permission.

5月12日14时36分，邢台市消防救援支队指挥中心接到报警称，天河山景区滑索上有人员被困，接到报警后，指挥中心立即调派支队高空救援专业队和邢台县龙翔大街消防救援站18名消防救援人员和3部消防车赶往现场进行救援。
消防救援人员到达现场后，经过观察了解后得知，一名游客乘坐滑索准备下山，不料滑索出现故障，被困在距离出发点60米、距地面120米的地方动弹不得。
消防救援人员到达滑索出发点后，迅速搭建救援绳索，穿戴救援装备，使用绳索把救援人员送至被困游客位置，其他救援人员在出发点收紧安全绳，防止发生意外。
经过近一分钟的绳索下放，救援人员到达被困人员位置，一边安慰被困游客，一边询问游客身体状况，同时为被困游客戴上安全头盔，并为其送上饮用水。确认游客身体无大碍后，消防救援人员迅速为其穿戴扁带和三角带等安全装备，做好双重保护后，通过对讲机通知出发点人员缓慢牵引安全绳索，出发点救援人员回拉救援绳索。经过近30分钟的紧张救援，被困游客被成功救助，所幸身体并无大碍。
