Think your school run is bad? Incredible moment Vietnamese man takes his kids across a flooded river in a PLASTIC BAG

  • Flood prevented children at a Vietnamese primary from getting to    school
  • One of the parents transported the entire class across in a plastic bag
  • Man swam across river and children arrived safe and dry on the other side


    • This parent is giving a whole new meaning to ‘school bag’ as he helps a class of primary pupils safely cross a river by taking them in a plastic bag.
    When the children in Sam Lang village, Dien Bien Province, near Hanoi in northern Vietnam could not get to school due to spring floods, one father found an unorthodox solution.
    As the nearby suspension bridge was out of action, he put the children in a plastic bag to keep them dry, and carried them across the flooded river.
