Luckily, the boy was rescued 10 minutes later by villagers who heard crying coming from a 5m deep well with a water level of 2m. The incident happened in Yunnan, China on March 8.
Security cameras recorded a scene where a girl and a boy were playing together. Suddenly, the girl picked up the boy and threw him down the well. Seeing that the boy was still holding on to the edge of the well, the girl used force to pull the boy's hand away so that he fell down. She then walked around the well for a while before leaving.

The girl picked up the boy and threw him down the well.
The boy's grandmother went looking for him and found him in the well when she heard his cries. She asked a man in the village to rescue him.
The families of the two boys were neighbors and they often played together. The girl said that the reason she threw the boy down the well was because she was imitating a TV series she was watching.
According to an unnamed local official, the girl's family later compensated the boy's family with thousands of yuan in damages along with an apology.

The boy was rescued from the well.
On March 10, the girl's family took the boy to the hospital for a check-up. The two families later reconciled. "The girl realized that her actions were wrong. Both of them are young and their awareness of safety is low," said a village official.
Local police also urged people not to spread the video of the incident to prevent copycats. The incident attracted 100 million views on Weibo and 10 million views on Douyin.
"The terrible thing is not that the girl threw the boy down the well, but that she pulled his hand away from the edge of the well when he was trying to hold on," "The girl and her parents should be charged. The well should be covered with a lid," said another.
