We understand people’s dedication and love for their pets. But this grandma’s love for her cat went over the edge! This grandmother’s cat was trapped on the balcony, a level below her floor. In order to rescue the pet, she risked her seven-year-old grandson’s life. How? The elderly woman dangled him from a 500-foot-high balcony to the edge of the platform for him to reach the feline. The heart-stopping moment was captured by onlookers on the opposite of the building. The grandmother was helped by a man who pulled the boy with a rope, up to their balcony. Luckily, no one was hurt, and the video has gone viral on the internet. Toddler Walks on Narrow Ledge of Apartment Building in Spain While Mother Was in Shower, Heart-Stopping Moment Caught on Camera.
