WATCH: A baby boy is saved by a neighbour after nearly falling from the 13th floor
Updated | By Stacey and JSbu
The hero of the day really goes to this neighbour and some firefighters who were able to rescue a two-year-old boy from falling off a tall building from the 13th floor in a residential district of Hefei City, in east China's Anhui Province.
This was definitely one of those life or death situations, but this neighbour was able to think quickly on his feet and make things happen.
Luckily, the falling boy was blocked by the wire mesh of the window on the 13th floor.
When the neighbour noticed a boy hanging and stuck in the window of his balcony, he quickly rushed to the rescue and his wife immediately called the police for help. What an amazing couple.
Watch video below:
Without further hesitation, the neighbour rushed to the window and grabbed the child’s hands tightly to keep him steady and holding on until emergency services arrived.
After holding on for about 10 minutes, the firefighters arrived at the flat. They used special cutting pliers to cut and break the wires and steel tube of the anti-theft window and finally were able to carry the boy inside the house.
What a relief!
