A woman managed to catch a 1-year-old boy who fell from a window of a high-rise building in Kuzbasskiy, southern Russia.

Footage from July 26 shows the woman holding her arms out and plucking the child out of the air.

The woman later handed the child back to the grateful parents.

Thankfully, the child only suffered minor bruises.

The footage shows how a woman in the courtyard on Sibiryakov-Gvardeytsev Street runs to the house, raises her hands, and a second later a child falls out of the window. The one and a half year old boy was lucky to be noticed by a local resident passing by, sitting on the edge of the window sill.

The baby's parents were at home at the time of the incident, but they were distracted by household chores and did not notice how the child climbed onto the window. They heard a scream from the street and, looking out the window, saw a miraculously rescued child in the arms of a woman. She handed the boy over to his father and mother, who, in the confusion, did not have time to really thank the savior of their child.

Doctors diagnosed the child with only minor bruises.
