A kindergarten student in a Chinese school jumped off a toilet window from the third floor of a building, however, he miraculously survived after being caught in hand by a security guard.
The security guard of the school who stood on the ground held out his hands to catch him with the kid only sustaining minor injuries, narrowly escaping a fatal impact.
The minor sustained minor bone fractures, according to local authorities.
