Heroic neighbours saved a girl dangling from a second-floor window in southern China.

The video was filmed in Hechi City in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on August 11.

A girl, around six years old, found herself dangling from the second floor of a residential building after becoming trapped in the window's security bars. She had managed to wedge her neck between the bars, leaving her body hanging precariously outside the building.

The situation was dire, with the girl struggling to free herself as horrified onlookers below scrambled to find a way to cushion her potential fall.

Amid the chaos, a local hero emerged. Yang Shuang, a young man who owns a nearby window and door shop, sprang into action. With the assistance of another quick-thinking neighbour, Lu Yunshun, Yang grabbed a kitchen knife and hacked away at the bars of the first-floor security window.

The two men then performed a daring rescue, with Yang climbing through the newly created gap to reach the girl. Yang scaled the security bars to the second floor, where he carefully lifted the girl to safety.

Thanks to the swift and courageous actions of Yang and Lu, the girl was safely returned inside, avoiding what could have been a tragic outcome. She was later taken to the hospital, where she was found to have suffered only minor scratches to her neck, with no other injuries reported.

The girl's parents, who were not home at the time, were overwhelmed with gratitude upon learning of the close call. They visited Yang and Lu to personally thank them for their heroic actions and covered the cost of repairing the first-floor window bars.

The family expressed their deep appreciation, acknowledging that without the brave intervention of these good Samaritans, they could have faced an unimaginable tragedy.

8月11日，广西河池凤山县发生了一幕惊心动魄的生死救援，一名女童不慎卡在三楼窗户防盗网中，身体悬空，命悬一线。在关键时刻，多名热心邻居挺身而出，合力将女童成功救下。

据目击者拍摄的视频显示，一名年约六岁的女童在无人看管的情况下，不慎将脖子卡进了三楼窗户的防盗网中，整个身体悬空在外，情况十分危急。女童在空中不断挣扎，随时有掉落的危险，楼下的群众见状，纷纷拉起床垫等物品以防不测。

就在这千钧一发之际，一名身穿黑色短袖的小伙——来自湖北洪湖的杨双，迅速冲到了现场。杨双是事发居民楼下一家门窗批发门店的老板，他见状立即采取行动。在另一位热心邻居陆云顺的协助下，杨双拿起一把菜刀，果断砍断了二楼住户防盗窗的两根护栏。随后，他身手敏捷地从孔洞中钻出，徒手攀爬到三楼防盗网的顶部，将女童紧紧抱住并平安托举回屋内。

女童获救后，经医院检查仅脖子轻微擦伤，身体并无大碍。女童的父母得知情况后，专程上门向杨双和陆云顺表示感谢，并支付了修复二楼住户防盗网的费用。他们表示，是这些好心人的及时出手相助，才让他们避免了无法挽回的悲剧。
