A young boy fell into a washing machine and got helplessly trapped but luckily for him, his neighbours were at hand to perform some 'magic' for his rescue.
This is the shocking scene which faced a mother when she heard her toddler son crying from another room.
The curious two year old had fallen into the top-loading washing machine after climbing up to peer in.
He quickly became trapped and despite his mother trying hard to pull him out, she couldn't release him. She raced next door and asked her neighbours to help.
The footage, recorded on a mobile phone, shows they had to rip the machine apart to free him.
Neighbours Shivaraj Andagi and Hanumant Reddy Kallebennur can be see sawing off the top of the machine with a machete before ripping open the basket inside.
The tearful toddler is stuck watching the pair as the struggled for half an hour to free him.
The tot is said to be recovering well from his ordeal at home in Gulbarga, a city 131 miles west of Hyderabad in India.
