An unusual incident, which almost ended in a tragedy, occurred in the Chinese city of Enchi in the province of Habei. There, the local attraction clearly demonstrated how dangerous it is to ignore the rules of conduct in a public place: the baby who climbed to play the fountain almost killed a stream of water.
The incident occurred on August 1, but the case received fame the other day after publishing photos of what happened in the media. On that day in the evening, a five -year -old local resident, along with several dozen other children, ran on the pedestal of the city musical fountain. The screeching with delight, the children dance to the beat of the light music - like water jets, which at some point with unprecedented force soared into the air and pulled the boy behind them, writes South China Morning Post .
Judging by the photographs of eyewitnesses, the child was thrown up about two meters. Having fallen from such a height, he could get severe injuries and even die. However, the baby was lucky, he escaped with a broken nose and straightened self -esteem - in a few moments of flight a stream of water pulled his pants from him.
The musical fountain is a favorite place for the game of children, and sometimes adults, from the very moment of its discovery. There is a fence around the perimeter and there are warnings, reminiscent of the inadmissibility of bathing in the fountain. However, no one, as a rule, pays attention to them, the local press notes.
Parents of the injured child insist on the opposite. "Here our baby plays cheerfully in the water. And the next second, he screams into the air with a cry. And around - not a single sign that would warn of such a danger!" - quotes The Daily Mail of the boy's father.
The city authorities, in turn, accused the parents themselves: it was necessary to look after the child and, of course, not let him go into the fountain. And users of Chinese social networks, who are very hunting for the incident, agree that the child, of course, is sorry, South China Morning Post notes. But they add immediately: do not do stupid things - and you will not find yourself in a stupid position.
