Toddler falls from second-floor window survives!

As parents we don’t want anything bad happening to our children, even as insignificant as an insect bite; just the sight of their red face, swollen from wailing, strikes disproportionate guilt straight through our hearts.

Now imagine seeing your child slipping through a second story window and slamming face-first into the ground. If you think that’s too much, then you can probably not handle watching the CCTV footage below.

At first the footage shows only an empty lot, but a few seconds later a baby enters the frame and slams face-first into the ground.
