Woman and child miraculously survive brick fall in China

The moment of saving a mother with a young child from falling bricks was filmed in early September by a surveillance camera in the city of Yangzhou (Jiangsu Province, China).

According to a woman named Ge, the incident took place around noon when she was about to open the door of her car. Suddenly, she heard a loud noise from above and rushed to save her son.

Later it turned out that the bricks fell from the outer wall of the 18th floor.

Property officials said the incident was due to aging and weathering of the building's exterior wall. They will discuss compensation issues with the victims.
