Video footage has caught the dramatic moment a woman in China was caught by a quick-thinking fireman.
She had fallen from a windowsill in her home after she tried to escape the fire in Jiaxing City, China's Zhejiang province on March 25.
People can be heard screaming as the woman falls from the windowsill.
In the footage posted on CGTN's Youtube page, smoke can be seen billowing out of one of the windows of the apartment building.
The woman had been left trapped on the sixth-story windowsill as firefighters worked out how to try and rescue her.
However before they could come up and get her, she lost her footing and fell.
People can be heard shouting and screaming as the woman falls.
However a quick-thinking firefighter manages to grab her from the window below and pull her back into the building.
The footage was taken from different angles and at one point, it is possible to see the flames coming from the building.
The woman's daughter was also rescued from the building.
According to CGTN, there were no reported injuries.
