A boy in China has cheated death after falling from a balcony 23 storeys up while playing with his friend.
The child landed on an outdoor air conditioning unit four levels below and survived the ordeal without serious injuries.
The boy was playing at his neighbour's home when he fell into a ventilation shaft Monday night in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province.
