Wait. There were firemen on the ground to catch the baby? Why the *fudge* didn't they break out the trampoline for the rest of the people in the building?

Didn't read the article.  Having a child myself, the idea/thought disturbs me.

If the outcome was positive, then it makes me happy.  sort of.

It really is hard to look at that picture, even knowing that child was caught. The thought that the parents might have died in the fire just makes it even harder to take.

Thinking about it, if I was in the same situation I might have done the same thing.
