The boy still had parts of the javelin inside his body when he arrived at hospital after fire crews had broken off the ends with cutting equipment.

Critical care paramedics and high acuity response unit personnel were among those called to the scene.

The boy is believed to have fallen on top of the javelin after he tried to jump over it while it was stuck in the ground, The Courier-Mail reported.
