A real hero: a video circulated in China in recent hours documented a man who managed to catch a two-year-old girl who fell from the window of her home on the fifth floor of a residential building. The terrifying incident took place in the city of Batongxiang in Zhejiang province on Tuesday last week. The heroic rescue footage was shared on Twitter by Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian who wrote: “Heroes among us.”
