Falling toddler saved by AirCon unit!

A TODDLER who fell from an eighth floor flat was plucked to safety after he became jammed between a wall and an air conditioning unit.


His legs dangled beneath the box and he started slipping as rescuers put their lives at risk trying to reach him.

The boy, three, was grabbed after several heart-stopping attempts. A witness said: “I heard screaming and looked up to see a kid stuck behind an air conditioner while his legs were dangling in the air.”

Grocery shop workers named Wang and Zhou saved the child, who had been home alone in Beijing, China, on Wednesday.

  10. And they said industrializing everything would be a bad idea. That AirCon unit just saved a baby! Would a tree have saved a baby? I think not.

  18. That is really scary. The kid is still lucky he was saved by the air-conditioning unit. Without it, he probably fell on the ground. Air-conditioning unit doesn't only help cool down the temperature but also saves life.
