A young boy sneaked into a shipping container while playing hide and seek and was found six days later after it had crossed 2,000 miles of the Indian Ocean.
Police in Port Klang, Malaysia, freed the boy after a worker heard a knocking sound while inspecting the container on January 17.
Video footage of the moment the boy - named Fahim - was freed shows him blinking at the sunlight and appearing to be exhausted and unsteady.
While he was trapped he had no access to food or water, and can be seen limping out of the container covered in dust, before wobbling on his feet and then sitting down in the doorway.
The container ship Integra had departed from Chittagong, Bangladesh, on 12th January.
Fahim told police he had gone inside the container while playing hide-and-seek friends, fallen asleep, and had accidentally been locked in.
He was found to have a fever as a result of his ordeal and was taken to Tengku Ampuan Rahimah Hospital in Klang for treatment.
He was last reported to be in stable condition.
Assistant Commissioner of Police Cha Hoong Fong said: "There was no foul play in the incident."
Malaysian Interior Minister Saifuddin Nasution made a tweet announcing that the boy had been reunited with his family saying: "Remember the child from Bangladesh found in a container in Port Klang?
"His name is Md Ratul Islam Fahim, I just call him Fahim. For six days Fahim was trapped in a container that departed from the port in Bangladesh without eating & drinking, it was a miracle that Fahim could be saved."
He added that the lad has now been reunited with his family and he ruled out human trafficking.
He said: "We are not linking this to human trafficking, because the initial investigation found that he entered the container, fell asleep, and (was transported to) Malaysia."
