A boy in China was captured on X-ray after he climbed into the scanning machine at a train station security checkpoint.

Father and son were passing through the checkpoint when the boy decided to go through his own way. As the father went ahead, the child reportedly evaded staff and climbed into the machine.

Surveillance footage shows the father looking around when he realizes his son isn’t right behind. Then the boy soon pops up on the exit side of security as he emerges out of the X-ray tube.

After explaining the incident to a security guard, the man and his son were allowed to leave. The Guangzhou Railway Police issued a statement warning parents that “when entering the station, they must take care of their children to avoid danger,” Newsweek reported.

A similar incident occurred at anther train station in China last year. A woman who didn’t want to let go of her handbag followed it through the X-ray machine at the Dongguan Railway Station.
