This is the dramatic moment a heroic bystander saves a little girl from drowning in a river.

Video footage filmed by panicked witnesses shows the girl quickly sinking to the bottom after accidentally falling from a nearby bridge in Xiaoqikong Scenic Area, Libo County, Guizhou, China, on October 26.

A kind local who saw her drowning swam after her and pulled her to the surface.

The little girl gasped for air as he carried her to a tree stump in the middle of the river, where they held on while people onshore tossed them a lifeline to help bring them to safety.

Staff at the scenic area confirmed that the girl was unharmed.

The rescuer jumped in without removing his glasses, which he lost in the water.

The girl's family expressed their gratitude for his bravery.
