A quick-thinking girl uses just her legs to rescue a sinking canoe in a captivating new video.

The youngster from Mabul Island - a fishing village off the coast of Malaysia - spots the submersed wooden boat and clings to a jetty as she secures each side of it underwater with her feet.

She then starts tipping the canoe side-to-side using her leg strength and amazing balance. Gradually the water splashes out and the sailing vessel bobs back to the surface.

Once she's finished her rescue mission, the girl jumps into the crystal clear water and invites her friends to get into the boat with her.


She remains dressed in a sodden skirt and T-shirt

Locals are heard chattering in the background as they admire her skills.


To date, the video of the unnamed Malaysian girl in action has been watched more than 450,000 times since it was uploaded on March 31.
