An elderly woman organised neighbours to catch a falling child plunging from the balcony.

CCTV footage shows the grandmother standing below the building and shouting for help as the youngster was heard crying above in Guangdong, China, on May 22.

As she looked up, following where the kid might fall, she called for the others to assist her.

Soon after, neighbours gathered with her with a tarpaulin, and all six of them held it on the edge to act as a catching net before the girl plunged into its middle.

The child was returned to her family unharmed, and although they were not penalised for leaving the girl alone, the authorities said it urged people to take more care of young children.
