According to Chinese media such as China Dotcom and Sina Finance, a two-year-old boy fell from the 20th floor of an apartment building in Liangjiang New District, Chongqing, at around 8:47 a.m. on the 19th of last month.
Before the accident, the grandmother confirmed that her child was sleeping in the living room and left the house for a while to do business.
The police assumed that the child who woke up climbed and fell on the veranda of the living room.
The child who fell was found breathing, although unconscious, as the trees and bushes on the flower bed on the first floor buffered him.
The first person to arrive at the scene was Zhou Shaoyong (50), an apartment security guard.
As soon as he heard the situation, he ran over and found an old lady crying with her child in her arms. The child was bleeding from his mouth and nose and was unconscious. Zhou immediately carried the child and started running to a nearby hospital. By the time he was out of breath and tired, a police officer took over the child and ran all the way to the hospital. Witnesses said it took about 10 minutes from the crash to the hospital's arrival.
At the time of arrival at the hospital, the child was unconscious and had an abnormal pupil response, but the trauma response team performed quick first aid. After that, the child's condition began to regain stability.
The medical staff said "The child was able to survive because ▲he was light in weight, so the impact of the fall was relatively small ▲ trees and bushes at the fall point alleviated the impact ▲ Thanks to the quick response of citizens, police, and medical staff."
One doctor did not hide his surprise, saying "A miracle that is rare in the medical field."
The mother of the child who rushed to the hospital thanked all of those who helped save her son"Wept. We must not leave our young children alone for a moment because of this," he said.
