A group of people caught a 5-year-old boy after he was thrown out of a burning third-floor flat by his mother in southwestern China.

The heroic video, filmed in Yanshan County in Yunnan Province on August 28, shows a residential building being engulfed in massive flames and a mother holding her son out the third-floor window.

The mother then threw her 5-year-old out of the window and a group of people holding a bedsheet under the building caught the boy.

The mother then climbed down through the water pipe first before jumping off and being caught by the crowd.

The crowd also caught another girl who jumped out of the window from the second floor to escape.

When the firefighters arrived, no one was in the burning building. The fire was extinguished and no one was injured.

The video was provided by local media with permission.
