A jaw-dropping clip that went viral on Chinese social media saw a man hanging his son over the edge of a cliff in an attempt to get a perfect shot.
The clip captured the horrifying moment as the young boy looked helpless while dangling on the man’s arm over the steep slope. Another man was seen capturing the photos from the back.
The video, which was first posted on Chinese social network Weibo, was filmed in Hongjing Road, a 12-mile winding road in Beijing known for its scenic views. The clip showed other tourists standing by the side of the road, but this family took a step further by hanging the child over the edge of a cliff all for a photo.
The clip went viral online and the man could be seen holding his son’s hands, while the little boy balanced himself by placing his feet against the wall. The kid dangled in the air while another man snapped photos from the back.
As the child hung loosely over the edge, an onlooker could be heard shouting, “Look, look! The kid’s hands are shaking!”
The footage sparked an outcry online, and many criticized the parent’s risky behavior.
