Thread: Baby miraculously survives fall from apartment building

A new-born baby miraculously escaped almost unscathed after she was apparently dropped from the fifth floor of an apartment building onto a banana orchard in Tambon Teparak, Muang district of Samut Prakarn province on Monday.


Police said they suspected that the baby was hurled from the apartment building by her single mother. They said they were trying to look for her.


The baby did not suffer any injuries from the fall thanks to the thick banana branches which helped absorb the impact from the fall. Several leaves were found broken. However, she suffered many ant bites.


A maid of the apartment building told Samrong Nua police that she heard baby cries from the banana orchard in the morning, but didn’t bother to check out. Until at about 10 am, she said she heard the cries again and, this time, she alerted a neighbor to investigate and they found a baby lying on thick grass under banana plants.


They took the baby out and then alerted the police who later arrived and joined by a team of nurses and medics from a hospital.


The baby was later taken to a hospital for medical care as police were trying to locate her mother for questioning.

Bloody hell. Lucky wee child to not have been killed, but unlucky to have a mother like that.

WTF? Sad sad sad "not my problem" attitude and deliberately uncurious even when it may be a baby's life. TIT

You'd normally expect the baby to be with its Mom when it's crying, can hardly fault the maid IMHO

Yeah, I meant the maid. I also meant that people are usually aware of who is in the orchard or house or vacant lot, and if a crying baby is unusual, should at least take a look. It's not "curtain twitching", it's human curiosity at something unusual, especially if it involves a crying child.

Sad start for that nipper. Hope someone steps up to the plate and gives it a future ( not the birth mother obviously) she should be thrown out of a 5 story building to see how she likes it.

Usually Thais (Laos) know everyones business. Small communitys even in bangkok a large city is all about the family books etc everyones knows everones bizzo. . Find it hard to believe that these sheilas could be so indifferent to the squawkes of a wee baby. . Maybe there just loso fuckers also?
