Toddler survives 26ft fall

A German toddler escaped without injury after falling 26 feet from a house.

Elif Celik, 28, was visiting a friend in Duesseldorf with her son Yussuf, who is 21 months old, when he fell.

"Our children were playing on the roof-deck," she explained. "Then I heard a noise, ran outside - and my child was gone."

Looking down, she saw him lying on the ground: "I was convinced that he could only be dead," she said.

But then Yussuf stated crying and calling for his mother and she realised there was still hope.

An ambulance arrived and a doctor examined Yussuf to find he had survived the fall unhurt.

Despite hitting a steel beam and the roadside curb, he had no injuries besides a few scratches.

Staff at nearby Solingen Hospital later confirmed this diagnosis.

Police are now trying to find out how Yussuf could fall from the roof-deck in the first place.

They believe he may have slipped through between two beams of the guard rail.

1) I'm glad she looked down......Gravity usually works that way.

2) Hahahaha, Fooled you! Just a little scratched up but.....

I'm almost tempted to call in an anonymous tip.........

"Hey, you guys should investigate gravity.......it's always causing accidents......"

Gravity is ALWAYS keeping ME down....

&^$#*&^# gravity and its stupid laws...

Glad the kid is ok tho

I've heard that children and drunks seldom get hurt in accidents because they are so relaxed. I'm always hearing on the news about drunk drivers walking away from the scene. Just food for thought.

Can I have a drink instead?

Damn gravity keeps me from being able to fly. Maybe the cops can arrest it and have it locked away for a while

Forever the comic!!!!
Would we want you any other way????

Gravity..........no, let's keep it - we can fly later.

I wished I had more of that last weekend.

My three year old niece managed to put her arm through a ladder back chair at the ice cream store...........and got stuck.

Trying to be ever so calm, I asked the lady if she had any liquid detergent in the store.........she did....we greased.........and arm came unstuck.

The next event was even better.........again the three year old terror somehow managed to push the EXACT two buttons on my alarm system that sets off the emergency siren.

I raced and turned off the alarm. However, it isn't quite that easy with an alarm system........you have to "reset" it and that takes some doing - crawling around in the basement, reaching the main electrical outlet and then going into the locked panel and doing some stuff in there. Did all that and my phone rings and the doorbell rings at the same time..........Alarm company........am I alright???

Send them off reassured and two seconds later my doorbell rings again.........my neighbors........am I alright???

I would have liked some heavy duty gravity to keep my niece's bottom in a chair for two or three seconds.

I was exhausted.

It is a good thing these two kids won't be able to get together.........heaven only knows what a 21 month old and 36 month old could cook up together!

Lead in the undies works too!

9.8m per second squared..........it's not just a good idea, it's the law.......on this planet, anyway

[DJFyrewolf36]

I say if you don't like the gravity laws on this planet then MOVE

More gravity news......

This sounds kind of cruel, but when you thinK about the question there can only be one answer....

A reporter doing a story on a plane crash....

"Authorities are investigating the cause of the crash....."


Have they ever tried to investigate gravity as being partially to blame????

[DJFyrewolf36]

The president seems to have a problem with dealing with gravity...perhaps he should check in to a "Gravity rehabilitation program"

The good news for the pres is that his opposition seems to be having the same difficulties with natural laws. Kerry was recently hurt in a skiing accident. All we need is to have one of them get chased off of a pond by a rabbit and it's the '70s all over again.

LOLOLOLOL,

And who can forget the "Monkey Business".

I am having flashbacks

I have a fascination with gravity, too.

A few years ago I was at the top of a 20' ladder, renailing some siding, when I noticed an empty wasp nest hanging under the peak. Proceeded to knock it down with my framing hammer, then a cloud of wasps flew in my face, I took one step backwards...

Ah, gravity! I landed on my back, head just inches from a brick sidewalk. Spent the next week or two (I forget) taking Tylenol 2 with codeine, and muscle relaxers.

You do know that the extraterrestrials have anti-grav? That's how their saucers hover silently when they borrow humans for their research. Wish they'd let us in on the technology! (look how good we've done with fire, electricity, radio, TV, atomic energy, the internet, religion, all their other gifts!)
