From NY Daily News[1]:

Terrifying footage shows the moment a small boy was sucked underwater into a feces-filled drain.

Heart-in-mouth video, believed to have been filmed in Brazil[2], shows him helping adults clear out the clogged hole in a sludge-filled river.

They laugh and joke as the men remove branches from the blocked gap.

But they all suddenly start screaming when the hole is cleared – and the youngster is dragged down into the fast-whirling water.

He’s immediately followed by another man. Stunned women onlookers ask what’s happened as the duo disappear.

But the group is relieved when the pair emerge, seconds later, on the other side of the dam.

It’s unclear exactly where in Brazil the clip was filmed.

Thank goodness they’re both alive. That is truly a terrifying video to watch, and I can’t even begin to imagine how scary it was to have been involved.
