A 3-year-old boy accidentally tumbled down a sewer after he stepped on a broken manhole cover. 

Surveillance video captured the terrifying moment in China. In the video, the boy can be seen walking in the street when he passes over the manhole and immediately drops down. 

The child's terrified father attempts to go in after him, but realizing he can't fit, he then lays down on the ground and pulls the boy to safety. 

Thankfully, the boy only sustained a few minor bruises.
