A Russian woman reportedly survived a fall from a 6th-floor balcony while cleaning windows. That's a long way to fall!

Typically, when you hear about a Russian falling from a building it's suspicious and politically related. Let's be honest. However, this time around it's a little bit different. A Russian woman reportedly fell 6 stories while cleaning windows on a building. Not only did she survive the fall, but she walked away from it! That's such a long way to fall she's lucky to be alive! It's not like she's some young fit person who can handle the fall either. She's 80-years-old!

Russian Woman Survives 6-Story Fall While Cleaning Windows

According to The Sun, she survived the fall and then walked away normally as if nothing had happened. Reports say she even talked to some witnesses before emergency services rushed to the scene and took her to the hospital.

A statement was released and obtained by The Sun saying, "During the investigation, it was preliminarily established that the elderly woman could have fallen out of the window due to her own carelessness. The victim was hospitalized in a medical facility and is receiving the necessary assistance. The police are investigating the incident."

Think about how high that is! Especially for an 80-year-old Russian woman! It's a miracle that she survived and was able to walk away from that. Very very lucky. See some pictures and read more about the incident from The Sun here.

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
