A teenager was rescued with a pneumatic drill after falling down a crack in the pavement.<br /><br />The 16-year-old girl was having a water fight with friends when she slipped on the uneven concrete in Samut Prakan, Thailand, on April 21 at around 7pm<br /><br />She lost her footing and her left leg plunged into a gap between two pieces of concrete covering drains. <br /><br />The girl was groaning in pain for an hour before the emergency services arrived at 8pm and spent another hour trying to free her. <br /><br />Rescue workers used soapy water to try and loosen her limb but she remained stuck - until they used a pneumatic drill to chip away at the concrete. <br /><br />She was eventually lifted out an hour later to cheers from neighbours who had gathered round and was t hen taken to hospital for a check-up.<br /><br />Rescue foundation worker Bandit Chalawa said: ‘’When we arrived there were so many people all crowded round trying to pull her out. It was causing traffic jams on the road. <br /><br />‘’It took an hour to remove the girl but she was not hurt. The residents will fix the crack now so nobody else can get stuck.’’
