This is the bizarre moment a six-year-old boy was seen working on a building site in Thailand - operating a digger.

Tony Kolrian, 43, looked out of his office window in Bangkok on October 9 morning when he saw the youngster.

The boy was on a construction site sitting in the seat of a digger as he lifted rocks from one pile to another, according to witnesses.

Kolrian said he had asked staff working next to the construction site next to the city's Lumphini Park how old the boy was.

He said: ''The boy was six-years-old. He was really good at using the backhoe.

''I could not believe what I saw. Thankfully he was not employed to work there. He was just playing on the digger. His father was teaching him how to use it. He was doing it very well.''
