NEW YORK - A 12-year-old girl is relatively unscathed after falling 180 feet down a New York City chimney.
Authorities say a 2-foot pile of soot and dust cushioned her fall, though both her legs were broken.
The girl apparently climbed into the chimney Thursday night while playing on the roof of a building in Manhattan. Rescuers found her at the chimney's base in a boiler room.
Fire Lt. Simon Ressner says rescuers hadn't expected to find her alive and were stunned when she reached her hand out for help.
I NEVER fail, i'm just SUCCESSFUL in finding out what doesn't work Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.
