Elderly Woman Survives Fall from Sixth Floor

In the city of Yekaterinburg, Russia, an elderly woman aged eighty-eight miraculously survived after falling from the sixth floor and landed on the roof of her neighbor's car. The incident occurred last Thursday when the woman, whose identity has not been disclosed, leaned out of her apartment window.

According to the police, it has been preliminarily established that the elderly woman fell from the window due to negligence. Local media reported that at one moment, she accidentally lost her balance and fell onto a car parked under her window. A video recording of the horrifying fall went viral on Russian social networks.

Immediately after falling onto the roof of the parked car, the eighty-eight-year-old woman got up by herself and left, apparently uninjured, not receiving any serious injuries. She sought help from one of the neighbors and was taken to a local hospital for necessary assistance.

The woman is located in a medical center and is receiving necessary treatment. Photographs of the car with the dented roof illustrate the force of the impact. A neighbor, whose car the elderly woman fell on, told journalists: "I saw her lying on my car from the window."

The police continue to investigate the circumstances of the incident.
