Footage posted on Pear Video shows at least three young girls walking on the top of a building ‘for fun’.
They lifted up their arms to balance while walking along the ledge carefully.
The ledge was about 40 centimetres wide (1.31 feet) and almost 20 metres high (66 feet).
The girl in uniforms were reported to be junior secondary students in Sichuan Zizong No. 1 Middle School.

A person talking in the video said he is filming this to show the parents how dangerous their children’s games could be. ‘They could have died if they fell from here,’ said the man
As the camera pans, it shows the local river, called Tuojiang, situated not far away from the building.
The person who filmed the footage said he want to remind the parents to take care of their sons and daughters when they go out to play.
‘You don’t want to imagine what would happen if they fell from here,’ he said.
All of the girls are thought to be safe.
Web users suggested parents should take extra care of their children.
‘They shouldn’t let their children go to these places! Parents will only cry and blame if any accidents happen, but never think of that as part of their responsibility,’ said ‘yigehaoguniang’.
Others blamed the Chinese rooftopper who plunged from 66th floor to a terrace last month.
‘The news of Wu Yongning is all over the social media, these children must have been imitating from it,’ said ‘yunchediyaoyun’.
