One man in China happened to be at the right place at the right time as he saved an infant's life.

Security cameras captured the scene that could make anyone’s heart rate rapidly accelerate. The one-year-old baby reportedly climbed out of a second floor window during a storm.

According to local news outlets, the child had stepped onto the ledge looking for the mother. Several Good Samaritans on the ground spotted the baby and feared a fall towards the ground was inevitable, but it was one man in particular who put his arms out ahead of time.

Sure enough, the child soon tumbled towards the pavement and the man named Mr. Li caught the infant.

"I didn’t think too much at the time, I was just afraid of failing to catch him. Some people put down cardboard to avoid serious injuries to the baby." [BBC]

Numerous other people had been surrounding him at the time and were thrilled the baby was safe.
