A homeless man stranded in sewage for two days was rescued in Wuhan, capital of Hubei province, last Wednesday.

Passersby found the 30-something man in a 4-m-deep sewage tank in the city's Gaoxin Dadao area, with half his body soaked in the dirty water.

Firefighters used water canons to clean the mess off the man before sending him to a hospital.
