A three-year-old landed on a canopy and was brought back to safety by a kind-hearted man after falling from the first floor of a building in southwestern China.

In the video, filmed in the country of Majiang in Guizhou Province on November 13, a boy hangs from a window ledge on the first floor of a residential building.

Nearby passersby and police officers gathered underneath the building to raise up their hands in case the boy suddenly fell down.

Luckily, the boy dropped onto a canopy and a man brought him back to safety.

The boy was reportedly climbing out of the first-floor window after he woke up and his parents were both downstairs.

Although the toddler was frightened, he was not injured, reports said.
