[Paroxysm]

A dramatic scene at an Edmonton apartment building Wednesday morning where a fire trapped a young family in an apartment with a 21-month-old baby boy. Then like something out of a movie, the family broke a window and dropped the baby from the third floor safely into the arms of an awaiting resident.

I remember hearing about something like this happening in NY a few years ago. Damn, talk about a stressful situation though. Oh well, this guy wins "Catch of the Year".

At least the kid's ok.

Jeez, I would've been ****ting my pants if I were that guy that had to catch the baby. Intense.

Yeah, but afterward you'd feel better than you have ever felt in your entire life.

Like a superhero! Phone the mayor! I got a key to the city to give away!

Yeah, but afterward you'd feel better than you have ever felt in your entire life.

Assuming you actually caught the baby...

 

[Majic Walrus]

Oh totally. You miss and you'll feel like **** and probably kill yourself.

Well, you either let it die in the fire or take the chance of letting it die by saving it. Lesser of two evils.

Reminds me of something that happened hear last week. Some lit some apartment on fire and some guy had to jump out the window. Unfortunately for him, he landed on those spiky bars.
