Locals said the small child had been trapped between the sixth-floor balcony guardrails. The youngster’s head was wedged precariously in the narrow gap while below, locals held up a mattress in case the kid fell. Footage shows how the construction worker was reeled down like Spider-Man towards the toddler as he pushed the child’s body onto the platform. The kid’s parents later came rushing out and thanked the brave hero for his help. Nobody was injured in the incident.
