A 97 year-old Ukranian granny can count herself very lucky to have had a narrow escape after falling out of a window 35ft above ground.

Dubbed the “luckiest woman alive” by many online, the woman somehow fell out of the fourth floor window of a building and was left dangling when her leg was caught in the air-conditioning bracket on the wall.
According to reports she was screaming for help for half an hour before firemen arrived and rescued the stricken woman. She was taken to hospital and is believed to be only suffering from shock, which given the circumstances, is not bad at all.
Suggestions that this was merely a viral video made by LG Electronics look a little wide of the mark - shame on your cynicism - but at least she survived to tell the tale.
Hat-tip to the lovely ladies in Her.ie for the video.
