Baby Falls 33 Meters, Saved by Nurses with a Coat

An 18-month-old baby fell from a height of 33 meters in St. Petersburg, Russia, but was saved by two nurses who managed to spread a coat as a safety net. The baby had opened the window and fell, while the nurses happened to be in the area. The child was taken to the hospital and did not sustain serious injuries. The nurses described the moment as instinctive, stating that the baby fell as if climbing down from a sofa. According to reports, the child was home alone while his parents visited neighbors and his brother was playing video games in another room. Authorities are investigating the circumstances of the accident, focusing on the lack of a window lock and the lack of supervision.
