Two children have been killed and 20 other people injured after a bouncy castle was blown high into the sky in central China's Henan province.

It was caused by a dust storm.

One parent reportedly told local media that she saw children fall from a height of about 20 metres.

Footage shared on social media shows people running and stalls collapsing as the dust storm rips through the fairground, lifting the bouncy castle high into the sky.
