Hero Saves Toddler Dangling From 4th-Floor Window Using Only A Mop

"His brave and courageous actions are worthy of praise."

A quick-thinking man is being hailed as a hero in China for climbing outside a fourth-floor window to save a toddler who was dangling off the side of the building. And he did it using only a mop.

Wang Baocheng, of Weifang, a city in Shandong province, heard the girl's cries while walking through the neighborhood.

"I heard her calling for help and quickly ran over," he told CCTV. "I saw that the girl's head was stuck and it was holding her up."

The child had been left home alone and somehow managed to crawl out the window. Her head got stuck in the bars, which stopped her from falling.
