Villagers ventured into floodwater to save the driver of a submerged car in northern China.

The video filmed in Zhuji Village, Nanyang City shows a car almost completely submerged by the floodwater. The driver crawled out before the water filled the car. The husband of the driver came to rescue her but was trapped in the middle of the bridge.

The local authorities formed into a human chain to rescue the driver's husband. A man tied a rope around his waist and jumped into the water to rescue the driver.

It’s reported that, after heavy rain, the water level of the Sheqi County Reservoir in Nanyang city rose greatly.

The video was filmed on July 22 and provided by local media.
