Christopher Hart was not sure he could catch the child.
But at the moment of life and death, he had no other choice.
Luckily, the heavens were looking out for them—he lunged out and managed to grab the child's arm just in time, pulling him back forcefully and holding him tightly in his arms.

The seventh floor was not too high or too low, but with bad luck, a fall could cause instant brain damage beyond even the "Miracle Doctor's" help.
If luck were on his side, he might still have a breath left, a chance for the doctors to save him.

The awning provided some cushioning, but a piece of rebar had pierced somewhere, sending excruciating pain throughout his body.
