A man dangled by his NECK at the top of a 130ft ferris wheel after being allowed to get on the ride alone.
Terrifying footage shows the boy kicking his legs and screaming at the highest point of the ride.
The five-year-old had been with his mum, Mrs Liu, and she paid the 30RMB - about £3.30 - for the youngster to have a go.
But as the ride gets underway the boy tried to sit on the metal bars securing the open window of cabin when he slipped.
He very nearly plunged 40 metres to his death at Yuhuan Park in Taizhou city in East China's Zhejiang province but instead became stuck.
The mum, watching from the ground, and other witnesses started screaming and shouting as car number 18, reached the peak of the city landmark Ferris wheel.
