Egypt’s Interior Ministry released a video of the incident this week showing three policemen on duty guarding a bank and standing on a sidewalk. They look up and apparently see the child dangling from the balcony before rushing to catch him as he falls.
The ministry said in a statement that the child was unharmed but one of the policemen was injured and was sent to a nearby hospital for treatment.
The video was carried by Egyptian media outlets who hailed the policemen’s quick reaction as “heroic.”
Notice, the astute crowds did not applaud until they saw him with possession to the ground. Well educated football fans over in egypt.
They didn’t catch him at all, he fell.onto the ground!
