  1. On this day, that boy is died – Rest in peace boy .

  2. Sad news: I am very sad about the 10 -year -old boy died on January 4, 2023

  3. Sadly the boy was announced dead only couple of minutes ago

  4. Vietnamese here:
    The thing is his family don't have money for him to learn martial art, so he find some scraps to sell while his parents don't know about it, then this happened

  5. Wait he's ten then how did he fall down a hole that is only 10 inches wide like that's not even the size of my ruler?

  6. from vietnam; the kid 10 years old falling into betton pile;until now is 4days rescue; now we hopefully the kids is alive as the magic; we prepare to pick up betton pile out of land;to reduce minimum suffer to the kid;lets pray for the kid

  7. Where I live is 40km from here. the child has actually been dead since December 31st. All current prayers are just a measure to reassure everyone's spirit. no miracles happen to him

  8. Please save the child…
    We waiting to heard the good news from him …

  9. I am living in Saigon waiting for the Magic to come. God bless!

  10. This is tragic news. I’m so sorry for that boy and his family. 🙏🏼

  11. I can not imagine the pain and suffering the child is going trough.. stuck, cold, dark and no way to go. I pray for him to be strong!

  12. God bless this poor boy.

  13. That kid will live to be of old age. Maybe even 115 years old.I guarantee it. He survived that. Pffft. That kid needs scientists to check him out see what kind of mutation he has that we all need.

  14. What is he even doing around that dangerous construction area alone?

  15. … don't supervise your children and you shouldn't be a parent = its called removing yourself from the gene pool

  16. He probably dead, RIP 🥀

  17. In America there would be all kinds of safety measures taken even laws like Attractive Hazard that are attractive to children and use construction sites as playgrounds, and all dangerous stuff would have plywood put over the top so nobody could fall in holes, signs put up warning people of dangers, a paid security guard on staff to watch property to make sure nobody criminally trespasses or steals or worse, hurt themselves. Looks like a lawsuit in the future, praying for the family of the boys.

  18. I will keep him in my prayers
