This heart-stopping footage shows a father climbing out of a seventh-floor window to rescue his son who climbed outside and got stuck in South China's Foshan City on August 15 . The seven-year-old was home alone and thought there has been a break in, so he climbed out of the window for safety, but got trapped on the ledge. Instead of waiting for firefighters to arrive, the boy's father started a rescue mission by himself. Both father and son safely made it back into their apartment.
