A woman in Anhui, China has become stuck between two walls. She was only released seven hours later, reports say.

Firefighters have helped free her, and the rescue has been captured in the video posted above. They had to tear up a part of the wall in order to break her out. They proceeded gently and took out bricks one at a time, so as to avoid hurting her.

The entire operation took 20 minutes to complete, Metro writes. She was walking on Saturday, July 13 when she became stuck at roughly 10 p.m. while trying to take a shortcut through the gap between the walls.

She tried to signal for help but nobody passed by until 5 a.m. the next day. She has not been injured as a result of the incident.
