This is the moment a four-year-old boy saves his baby sister from suffocating as he rushes to pull a blanket away after it accidentally fell over her head.
At-home surveillance footage captured the moment at a family home in Guangzhou, in China’s southern Guangdong Province on the afternoon of 14th October.
The five-month-old baby, playing alone, accidentally got her face covered by a blanket, struggling for over 10 seconds.
Luckily, her four-year-old brother immediately ran over and lifted the blanket with both hands, rescuing his sister.
After ensuring the baby’s safety, he pulled the blanket away and threw it away, preventing a similar incident from happening again.
According to Mrs Pan, the mother, she was doing household chores in the living room while keeping an eye on her children through the home surveillance system.
Upon witnessing the incident, she immediately asked her four-year-old son to help his sister.
She said she was very grateful to have such a brave and quick-thinking son.
Mrs Pan: “I am very grateful for my son. He is very brave and smart.
“At the same time, I want to remind other parents never to let their children be in danger due to negligence.”
She stated that she would pay even more attention to her children’s safety and urged other parents to strengthen safety education for their own children.
