New Delhi: A young woman cheated possible death on a busy Noida road on Saturday.
The woman, who was riding a scooty, landed on the pillar base of the elevated road near Noida Sector 25, after her two-wheeler was hit from behind by a car, reported ANI.
It was sheer luck that the woman landed on a pillar, instead of the busy road below, after being flung off the scooty.
Two men reached out to calm her down and help her down. But they also got stuck.
Fire department and police personnel equipped with proper machine arrived to help in the rescue effort.
The woman and the two men who helped were all brought down, and sent to hospital.
Trauma apart, the woman escaped serious injuries, and possible death too.
The rescue operation was recorded on camera. A video clip was shared by ANI.
