Astonishing! She survived, so I guess he manged to break her fall enough. Wouldn't call it a catch though.

He ripped a tendon in his shoulder saving her.

A New York City bus driver has been hailed a hero after he caught a seven-year-old girl when she fell from a third storey window.

Stephen St Bernard was on his way home from work in Coney Island when he spotted the child standing precariously on an air conditioning unit outside a window.

As he tried to persuade her to go back in to the building, she suddenly fell.
