Residents of a western Indian village created a human chain along a stretch of rope to help bring children and animals to safety during a flood.

Footage filmed on June 22 shows the villagers in Mandvi lining up on the rope and passing a child up the line.

Due to heavy rain which lasted 48 hours, many of the roads were submerged leaving people stranded in their houses.
