In a hair-raising incident caught on cam, a Kerala-based boy recently had a narrow escape as his brother caught him after he fell from terrace during house cleaning. Hair raising visuals captured thanks to CCTV shows a youth holding a water piper.

Suddenly, all hell breaks loose as the younger brother, who was presumably on terrace, loses his balance and falls from terrace. Fortunately, the elder brother held his nerves and broke the young boy’s fall, saving him from a potential injury, or worse.

Thanks to social media, there have been similar instances of youths and even adults finding themselves in a pickle, and yet miraculously escaping a potential mishap thanks to their luck, or someone else’s timely intervention.

Earlier this year, a shocking video from Kerala emerged which showed a 9-year-old riding a bicycle, and cheating death twice within a few seconds. The boy first escaped getting crushed by a motorcycle, and then a bus that missed him by a few inches.

Similarly, in Brazil, an elderly woman was saved by getting run over by a tram thanks to a motorcyclist who spotted her and pushed her away from the oncoming train.

In Argentina, a woman had a narrow escape after she fainted and fell right under a moving train, and yet managed to survive to tell the tale.

The Facts of the Matter

We have all seen Marvel and DC movies where a superhero swoops in at the right time, and miraculously saves a child or an elderly person at the right time. However, not all superheroes wear capes. Some are just present at the right time, and have the bravery to do the right thing.

Recently in Kerala, a boy had a narrow escape after he fell from the terrace during house cleaning. The boy had his elder brother who broke his fall and caught him, avoiding any potential injury.
