Another Super-Kid

A few weeks ago a story was posted about a kid who survived being run over by a car. Here is a similar story which I found even more miraculous

Boy, Home Alone, Survives 11-Story Fall

ALBANY, N.Y. (July 8) - A 4-year-old boy survived a fall from an 11-story window Friday after being left alone at home, bouncing off a metal awning into a concrete courtyard and then trying to stand up, officials said. He was able to chat with doctors.

"I'm amazed the kid's alive," Police Chief James Tuffey said.

Hasim Townsend remained in serious condition Saturday with a broken skull, a broken leg and other injuries.

"It's an incredibly good sign that he was talking, and I can't attribute it to anything other than good luck," said Dr. Michael Dailey, an attending physician in the emergency department.

The boy ended up in the same pediatric intensive care unit at Albany Medical Center where his mother works as a receptionist, police reports said.

Elizabeth Burciaga, 21, was charged with endangering the welfare of a child. She initially told police the boy had been left with a baby sitter, officials said.

The boy stood on a bed and pressed against a window screen, which gave way, police said. He hit the awning about 12 feet off the ground, and it flexed and saved him.

Police came after residents heard him crying. Paramedics had to hold the boy still.

Albany has no regulation requiring bars or other window guards in high-rise apartments, said Steve Longo, executive director of the Albany Housing Authority.

How is this a 'super kid'...he bounced off an awning. That took the edge off the force of the fall. Now had he bounced off the concrete and still stood up and all, well that's a different matter.

It was a metal awning. Not as bad as the ground, but it could still do some serious damage.

Meh. He didn't murder someone with a piano so he's not that great.
