00:00His hand was stuck in the pipe, and when his hand was stuck in the pipe, I tried a lot to pull it.
00:05Extensive rescue operation at this residence by Dubai police as a three and a half year old boy
00:10stuck his arm in the swimming pool pipe for several hours. I'm Ali from Gulf News,
00:16and we are here revisiting the heroic action of Dubai police to rescue the boy.
00:20What's happened to your arm? Show me your arm, show me.
00:23Oh, it's hurt.
00:25It's hurt? Okay, what's happened?
00:29You couldn't get my arm in.
00:30You wasn't swimming?
00:33Swimming pool playing?
00:35Yes.
00:35He jumped on the cover of the drainage.
00:39He jumped there on that cover, and suddenly he fell down.
00:43When he fell down, he told me, Mama, help.
00:46And I went there, I thought he want to get up.
00:49He's not able to get up.
00:50I will help him.
00:51But I found his hand was stuck.
00:54Stuck in the pipe.
00:56I tried a lot to pull it, but I could not do it.
01:01Then there were some people around.
01:02I told them, help me, please.
01:04So they pulled him out on his arm.
01:07But again, nothing happened.
01:10And then that people, they called the police.
01:12He was crying continuously.
01:14He was scared in the pool.
01:15He was himself crying also.
01:17I was very scared.
01:18I was very worried.
01:19This is the worst day of my life.
01:22I did not experience such experience before.
01:25When the police came, and then they calmed us down.
01:27They calmed me down.
01:28And they said nothing to worry about.
01:30He will, they will rescue him.
01:32In this place, the three and a half year old boy was playing.
01:36This is the pipe of the drain.
01:37And he put his arm in the pipe, and it was sucked.
01:40He was trapped here for about two hours.
01:44You can see the pipe is equal to his arm.
01:48So he was stuck until here.
01:50And he stayed here for a couple of hours until he was rescued.
01:53He wasn't injured.
01:54It's only minor scratches on his arm.
01:56There is no break in the bone and nothing.
01:58That show the efficiency of Dubai police work.
02:01It's an amazing work, especially from police and from the rescue team.
02:04Because they rescued him.
02:06They continuously work for two hours.
02:08It's not a joke, continuously working for two hours.
02:10And rescuing child without damaging his arm.
02:14Yeah, I'm thankful.
02:15I'm thankful to him.
02:16They do amazing work.
02:18I was sitting on the border of the swimming pool.
02:20Sitting.
02:21I want to convey all the parenters.
02:23Don't sit like that.
02:24Because I saw on the swimming pool.
02:25So many parenters are just watching their children.
02:28Only watching their children.
02:29They do not know what they are doing inside the swimming pool.
02:32Like me, I was continuously observing my child.
02:34Continuously, I was seeing him.
02:36I was continuously supervising him.
02:38But still this incident happened.
02:39Why?
02:40Because I was not in the pool.
02:41If I was in the pool, when he slipped, I have to drag his arm.
02:44At that time, I'm thanking almighty that he saved his life.
02:47But if his arm is, his arm, he's a three and a half year old kid.
02:52It could damage his arm.
02:54So I'm requesting all the parents, join in the swimming pool.
02:57Not watch them.
02:58The quick response by Dubai police helped to rescue the child in a record time.
03:03Dubai police advise parents to look after their children.
03:07And do not leave them unattended.
03:09Even for a few seconds.
03:11As one second can make the difference in saving lives.
