Wow talk about right place, right time.

Re: Brit Tourist Catches Toddler In Balcony Fall
Yep totally - a very lucky baby and family!
I dare say most people would misjudge the momentum of even a small child falling from that sort of height but even though the baby was dropped, the lady involved obviously managed to cushion the fall sufficiently to avoid serious injury.  For very quick thinking.

Re: Brit Tourist Catches Toddler In Balcony Fall
Great story, reminds me of the kid who fell from an escalator in Turkey and was caught by a member of the public.
