This is the hilarious moment firemen in southern China were left soaked after their colleague lost control of a water hose during training.

The funny video, filmed in the city of Hechi in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on September 18, shows four firefighters laying on the water hoses to practise water shooting during a training exercise.

After the water was turned on, one of the water hosen dragged a fireman away and sprayed the water over the three other colleagues.
