The Man Who Was Hit On The Head By A Falling Baby, Twice!

in 1937 a local street sweeper in Detroit, Michigan, named Joseph Figlock, was walking down the road when a baby fell from a 4th story window. The baby struck him on the head and shoulders. The tackling toddler was thankfully not killed, but both the baby and Mr. Figlock were injured.

The following year, a two year old baby boy named David Thomas, fell from a window. Joseph, doing his job sweeping out an alley, was again struck by the falling baby. Remarkably, once again neither one was killed, and came from the incident with only minor injuries.

How are these babies falling from windows? lol Must be a strong breeze through where they live.

lol That would be very bad patenting. Just sit on the window sill for a while ... while mommy makes dinner. lol

Guess the word 'baby' could mean any age from 2 to 4 I guess. I was thinking 3 to 6 month old lol

I actually think that was the case at least with one of those falling babies. I think I read that somewhere.
