https://abcnews.go.com/International/lion-person-baby-falling-window-caught-boy-walking/story?id=63986589<snip>
I was walking down the road when I saw a two-year-old girl hanging from a window, Feuzi Zabaat said according to Turkeys private Demiroren News Agency (DHA). I walked close to her, and as she fell I held on to her.
The video, from a nearby security camera, shows the toddler falling and Zabaat catching her in mid-air. Onlookers then surround the boy as he cradles the baby in his arms.

(10,054 posts)This is what a human being is supposed to do when they see a child in trouble, instinctively try to help and save them. The opposite of the repugs who have no heart...

I no longer believe most viral videos arent staged.

(269,106 posts)If these were merely people with a camera we would have seen the child hanging on and falling.
This one is real. Watch the folks around.

Not saying it is or isnt faked. I am saying many such viral videos are staged these days. I withhold judgment.

(87 posts)Perhaps you believed in the reality of drunk Nancy Pelosi?
There are people out there right now whose every waking moment is focused on achieving viral stardom on YouTube and Twitter. There have been countless illusions that have been later exposed, usually long after the post has been viewed by millions.
So yes, I think we are often presented with video illusions.

(698 posts)is that the camera is constantly jiggling, as if it were hand held instead of permanently mounted. It may just be mounted very loosely in a windy or otherwise unstable location, but for a security camera it does look odd.
