A baby in China had to be rescued after he got stuck in a metal flower planter on a fourth-story balcony. Somehow he got on top of it, then fell down through a space that was just big enough for his body, but not quite big enough for his HEAD.

And since the kid's head wouldn't fit through, it's the only thing that saved him from plunging about 30 feet. A neighbor on the floor below risked his OWN life to climb up the outside of the building to help save him.

The video is on YouTube, and I don't know how the guy held on, because there wasn't even a ledge. It doesn't show the end of it, but they were both reportedly fine.
