A six-year-old is fortunate to be alive after his zip line harness broke and sent him crashing into a man-made lake at an amusement park in the northeastern Mexico state of Nuevo Leรณn on Sunday.
The frightening incident was caught on video by the family and shows Cรฉsar Moreno zip lining 40 feet above the artificial lake at Amazonian Expedition in Fundidora Park.
An adult male can be seen sliding up next to Moreno and guiding him along the way when the safety belt suddenly snaps.
The man comes to a full stop and several people in the background scream before the recording ends.
According to Fox News, the young boy was moving across the zipline with an adult when they suddenly come to a stop and the boy fell.
Onlookers can be heard screaming in horror as the boy is mid-air before the clip cuts out.
The boy fell nearly 40 feet, authorities told Mexican media.
Family members, who identified the boy as Cesar, said a good Samaritan tourist jumped into the water to help the boy.
