Incredible rescue by New York firefighters goes viral
The New York Fire Department rescued a woman who was hanging from a burning Manhattan apartment building.

FDNY firefighters were called to battle flames in a Manhattan β€œtower” on Saturday, and through a video, this team can be seen pulling people out of the building.

While firefighters were rescuing a dozen people from the flames, a group of four firefighters went 20 floors in the air, at the end of a rope, to get a woman out (who was hanging).

A lady filmed this amazing scene from her cell phone, giving images of extraordinary heroism.

β€œIn all my life, I have never seen a more heroic act than what I just witnessed from my apartment. A woman rescued by New York City firefighters from a devastating apartment fire. While trying to escape the smoke, she slipped and ended up suspended 15-20 stories. THANK YOU to our heroes,” said Patti Ryan, the woman who filmed the scene.

As they say, there is still hope in humanity.
