Firefighters managed to rescue the elderly woman after she fell out of the window and hung on to an air conditioning unit.

Angela Artyomova from Rivne, hung 35 feet above the ground after she apparently fell out while cleaning her windows. Despite her age, the grandmother managed to grab onto the air conditioning unit. She then stuck her foot into the air condition bracket for better grip until she was rescued.

People who heard Artyomova scream for help, called firefighters. She was still hanging by the time firefighters arrived. One firefighter rushed up the ladder while another one entered the house and together they brought her to safety.

Officials of the fire brigade said they realized that the situation was desperate when they arrived and did not have time to set up an air cushion.

“This could’ve been tragic. Thankfully, it all ended well. At her age, it is surprising that she was strong enough to hold on to the air condition like she did. I wish her well. May she live in peace and be healthy,” Viktor Koslovsky, from Poltava, Ukraine told YourJewishNews.com after seeing the dramtic rescue on video.

After she was rescued, the grateful grandma thanked the firefighters, and joked that she fell out while trying to close the window in order to keep her sex life private, according to the video uploaded to YouTube.

The grandmother was taken to a hospital and treated for shock.
