Firefighters rescued a 5-year-old boy after he got his head trapped in between walls in eastern China.

The video, filmed in the city of Ningbo in Zhejiang Province on October 9, shows a boy with his head stuck in a narrow gap in between two walls and firefighters using a pair of hydraulic expansion pliers to try to expand the gap.

After around 10 minutes, the boy was rescued successfully.

According to reports, the boy was about to walk through the wall gap but got his head stuck.

Fortunately, the boy was not injured seriously.

10月9日下午4点50分许，宁波慈溪消防救援大队指挥中心接到群众报警称：宁波慈溪市坎墩街道鸣山路村有一名五岁男孩被夹在墙缝中，群众多番尝试解救未果，急需救援。接警后，慈溪市消防救援大队浒山消防救援站迅速出动两辆抢险救援消防车，12名指战员赶赴现场。
消防员到场后，发现一名小男孩头部被卡在房屋和院墙的夹缝内，身体倒是已经走了出来。整个夹缝约3米，越往外越窄，出口处仅有10余公分。孩子有点哭闹，除了头部太大被卡得无法活动，其他部分均可活动。
消防员先细心安慰了小男孩，给他喂了点水，避免小男孩强行挣扎导致受伤。经过商议，最后决定采取破墙救援方案。消防员先用消防防护服包裹一片木板托在儿童头顶，防止破拆墙体时会掉落砖瓦和水泥。随后，使用液压扩张钳在孩子头部上方进行扩张。经过近10分钟的紧张救援，被困小孩头部得以脱困，消防员随即将其抱出。经检查，身体并无大碍。
据了解，男孩今年5岁，幼儿园放学后回家在家附近玩耍。孩子本来打算穿过墙壁的夹缝，没想到接近成功时头部被卡牢。周围群众发现后多次尝试解救未果，最后想到了报警。
