Lucky escape: Toddler falls from 2nd floor, lands on rickshaw

A three-year-old boy had a miraculous escape after he fell from the second floor terrace of a building and landed on the seat of a cycle- rickshaw passing by in Pradhanpura area here.

The boy, Parv Jain, escaped without any injury in the incident that occurred on Saturday night.

The video of the incident, which was captured on the CCTV cameras installed in the nearby buildings, has gone viral on social media.

It shows a man walking and pulling his cycle-rickshaw with his hand on a narrow lane in a busy market area of Pradhanpura in Tikamgarh, when a child suddenly falls on its seat.

Ashish Jain, father of the child, said, "The incident occured at around 8.30 pm on Saturday night. My son, Parv, was playing on the second floor terrace, about 30-feet from the ground level. However, he lost balance and fell off the terrace. But luckily, a rickshaw puller Manohar Bhatt was passing on the road with his vehicle."
