Fantastic catch~!

[Gene Eric]

A 2 year old Chinese girl defies the odds. Consider it a message, China.

"Who in the HELL is that Chinese girl? Sign her up."

[jimfree]

Absolutely amazing. Velocity must have been very high at contact. The proper catch would involve timing a recoil motion to keep both parties from death and still might have caused serious injury. Wow!

Houston Astros should sign the lady to a long term contract for the outfield.

Now if we could only find a Chinaman that could throw a silver dollar across the Yellow River with some ‘hop’ on it.

[Huskrrrr]

Nice catch!

Girl baby with grandmom?

Hm? What are the bets it was an “accident”?

[TChad]

Falling about 100 feet, the baby would be traveling at about 55 mph. Slowed to 0 mph in probably less than six feet.

According to the first source I found, an average two year old American girl weighs about 28 lbs. I assume Chinese babies are a bit smaller, say 25 lbs.

I applaud the woman's courage and quick judgment, but that baby still must have impacted the ground very hard.

Wow! Apparently it happened at about 1:30pm. About that time, my wife and I were visiting the National Silk Museum....it's about a mile or two away from where this happened.

You know what they say. Catch one Chinese kid, and an hour later you’re looking up again...

[patriot08]

Amazing.

[JimRed]

Thanks to God for the catch. Prayers for the recovery of the child and her rescuer.
