Miracle escape for 6-year-old boy who falls 40 feet from zipline in Mexico

The incident was captured on video by onlookers who can be heard laughing and applauding before the boy fell.

The boy miraculously survived the fall and only sustained minor injuries, including abrasions.

He was rescued from the water by emergency services and did not attend hospital.

Another boy, aged 9, was also involved in a zipline incident a few weeks ago when he was swept up in a zorb ball that was caught in a gust of wind and fell 20 feet to the ground.
