A girl's mobile phone was accidentally dropped from hundreds of metres in the air after trying to take a selfie while paragliding in northern China.

Video filmed in the city of Shenyang in Liaoning Province on June 20 shows a girl holding a selfie stick with her phone attached to it to film herself when she was paragliding.

Since the coach thought the selfie stick was a bit short and the view was not good, he took the selfie stick and tried to extend it out. However, the phone accidentally fell of the stick and drop from more than 100-metre-high sky.

After the girl and the coach landed, five people spent more than 20 minutes to find the phone.

It was reportedly a Huawei phone and the girl has used it for three years.

Since the phone had a case on it and it also hit the tree leaves before landing on the more than 10-centimetre-thick pine needles covering on the ground, it was not damaged at all.

近日，辽宁沈阳。一位女孩玩滑翔伞时，夹在自拍杆上的手机不慎从100多米的高空掉落，手机记录下了高空坠落的画面。据基地教练介绍，在高空中，女孩的手机卡在自拍杆上拍摄，教练觉得她把自拍杆合得有点短，拍摄效果不好，就帮她把自拍杆拉长一节，结果在拉长的过程中，手机被震掉了。滑翔伞落地后，教练推测了大概的位置，五个人回去找了20多分钟，没想到还真找到了，手机也一点儿都没破损。（视频由辽宁台提供）
