A mother who fainted after a live wire shocked her in Haikou, Hainan province, recovered after her 10-year-old son used a wooden broom to push aside the wire on Wednesday.

The mother accidentally received the electric shock while she worked under a shed at a brick factory. The 32-year-old mother was grateful to her clever son.
