A fireman in eastern China dived into deep floodwater to open a gate to evacuate the stranded people.
The video, shot in the city of Xuancheng in Anhui Province on July 6, shows a heroic fireman diving into the floodwater to lift up the bolt to open a gate for the stranded residents.
According to reports, a family was trapped in their house as they could not open the gate, which was then submerged by the rising waters.
