A heroic man risked his life to rescue two children that were being washed away during flash floods in southern China.

The video, filmed in Ganzhou City in Jiangxi Province on June 10, the street in Wujiuba Village was submerged by the water from a nearby river and a boy was being swept away with several chairs by the over one-metre-deep floodwater.

The hero named Li Yijun, walked into the deep floods to save the boy with no regard of his own safety.

In another clip, Li can be seen chasing after and catching another boy who was swept away by the floods.

The exhausted Li spared all his effort to push the second boy onto the wall and then climbed onto it to have a rest.
