Mumbere Reagan, 12, and Mugume Devis, eight, were making their way to a local river to do some fishing when they were suddenly cut off by fast flowing water.

The boys became stuck on a rock where a local spotted them struggling and called for help.

Water aggressively flows past as they huddle together to keep from falling in.

Locals can also be heard talking in the background.
