New York city heroes save a toddler from a 40 feet fall

New York City Heroes Julio Gonzalez, 43, and Pedro Nevarez, 40, saved 3-year-old Timothy Addo dangling from a Bronx apartment building located at 2105 Daly Avenue, Bronx, New York (Google Maps View) on Thursday 12/04.

Hearing people in the building scream for help as the boy's grip weakened, the men rushed over to position themselves under the fire escape to catch him.

"No one came," Nevarez said. "We knew it was up to us."

The boy tumbled and hit Nevarez in the chest so hard he knocked him off balance, but he bounced into Gonzalez' arms.

Timothy was treated at the hospital for a cut on his forehead.
