Siberian youth hangs over balcony to impress girl, falls 23 floors onto car — and lives.

A story of miraculous luck comes from the Siberian Times, which reported this week that one Alexander Shadrin, 16, fell some 230 feet onto the roof of a Renault and survived.

Had it been a sturdier vehicle, perhaps, or had he missed the car by a few inches, the outcome could have been far more tragic.

According to the paper, witnesses said the young man was trying “to impress a girl” by climbing over a balcony and hanging on to a railing in the city of Novosibirsk.

But he lost his grip and plummeted 23 floors.

Photographs show a badly damaged Renault Logan taxi, fortunately unoccupied, which was credited with saving his life.

He was reportedly conscious after the fall and said to be in stable condition at a hospital.

“The identities of the girl he was seeking to impress, and his relatives have not been made public,” said the Times.

“He has a bruised abdomen and lung, a tear in his liver and a broken shoulder. The guy was born under a lucky star. He is stable and conscious,” a Novosibirsk investigator, Anastasiya Kuleshova, told TASS.
