A Colombian mother’s sharp reflexes helped save her son’s life after he fell off a balcony in the city of Medellin. The incident was captured on the CCTV camera on the afternoon of June 19. In the heart-stopping footage, the mother and son are seen waiting outside a construction company office in the Laureles Colonial building.
The boy is seen slowly going to see the view from the railing and putting his hands out. He then leans forward and falls right through the railing.
However, his mother sees him fall, leaps and manages to grab him by his leg. In a split second, the mum darts forward and grabs him by the ankle, just in the nick of time. She then holds him for a bit, before pulling him up. She even manages to keep her phone aside carefully after grabbing her son and pulling him back to safety.
