'Drunk' man sleeps on a river

A bizarre video has emerged of a man appearing to sleep on the surface of a river.

In the footage, shot earlier this month in Xuchang, Henan Province, China, a man can be seen floating on the water as police officers climb down with a buoy to rescue him.

The man, who was allegedly drunk, was woken up by the officers and managed to climb onto the river bank.

According to local reports, he had no idea how he ended up in the river.
