Rescuers saved two men trapped on a cliff in eastern China.

Video filmed in the city of Shaoxing in Zhejiang Province on June 17 shows rescuers tied by safety ropes being lowered down to the bottom of the around 100-metre-high cliff before approaching the two trapped men.

A group of rescuers on the top of the cliff then pulled a 100-metre-long rope attached to the two men together to bring them back to safety.

After a more than five-hour rescue, the two trapped men were saved and sent to hospital by an ambulance.

According to local residents, there were five pools of water on the cliff and three people were playing there.

One person's slippers were washed away, so another person attempted to take them back but slipped into another pool.

The third person tried to save the other but fell into the pool with him.

6月17日下午，在浙江绍兴嵊州市崇仁镇托潭坑村龙潭坑峡谷地段近百米高的悬崖上，上演了一场5小时“绝壁救援”，最终2名被困男子安全脱险。
“崇仁镇托潭坑村的龙潭坑峡谷地段，有市民坠崖，情况不明。”6月17日16时许，接到警情后，嵊州市红十字应急救援队、嵊州市消防救援大队、曙光救援队等多支救援力量以及属地公安、应急管理部门工作人员火速前往现场处置。

龙潭坑地处嵊州西部五百岗山脉的中心区域，崖壁陡峭，飞瀑层叠，人迹罕至，环境异常艰险。在现场，救援人员利用多根绳索慢慢下降，在对面岩壁中间的水潭边发现了两名被困男子。救援人员下降到近百米的谷底，再攀爬接近被困者。经初步检查，两名男子多处软组织挫伤、擦伤，救援人员立即对伤员进行包扎止血，并将伤员转移到谷底实施营救。
由于崖壁陡峭，救援工作并不顺畅。救援人员决定采取绳索提吊的方式转移伤者，利用100米绳索制作牵引绳，并设置多处支点进行保护，随后上演了五小时多的“绝壁救援”。

“一、二，拉！一、二，拉……”救援人员上下紧密协作展开营救。截至当晚9时许，救援人员成功将两人救上崖顶，由嵊州市120急救中心送往人民医院。
有知情市民还原“坠崖”经过，这个崖壁有连续五个水潭，高低错落，当时有三人在二潭戏水，其中一人的一只拖鞋漂走，另一人下意识去捡，不料滑落三潭，第三人伸手去拉，结果一起滑入落差近20米的三潭。
目前，具体情况有关部门正在调查之中。
