A 10-year-old boy climbed up a tree on Wednesday evening, quite high, hoping to jump back down. However, after getting up the tree, he realized how high he actually had climbed and was scared to jump. The fire department was called, and fireman began the work of getting him down to safety.

The child climbed a tree, reaching a height of about ten meters (yards) before he came to the realization he cannot get down and it was too high to jump. Firemen arrived and the scene and used a high ladder to bring him down unharmed. When they initially arrived, the firemen noticed he was seated on an unstable branch, and they feared it would break due to his weight, instructing him not to move.

B’chasdei Hashem, as seen in the video, the child was brought down to safety without incident.
