Mine rescue attempt

Mine rescue drop a specialized dolly with a camera on down the hole during the rescue attempt of a 5 year old child that fell down a  large sinkhole formed around an old mine shaft in Jerusalem informal settlement near Witfield in Germiston, Ekurhuleni. 
The rescue attempt was finally called off as the sides of the mine shaft were too unstable to rescue the child that would have unlikely survived the 40 meter fall.
