Miracle Baby


First, take a look at this picture. Just look at it for a minute.

Yes, that's a baby stroller. Hit by a truck. Here's the story.
A baby escaped without a scratch after her pram was pushed 100 metres down the road by a lorry.

The little girl owes her life to a quick-thinking schoolboy who leapt out and flagged the down the truck.

The Dutch driver, 33, had parked his lorry in front of a flower shop in the Swiss city of Zurich while he made his deliveries.

A young mother, who arrived at the shop a few minutes later, left her baby in her pram in front of the vehicle.

A police spokesman said that once the driver had delivered the flowers, he got back into his cab from the left side - without seeing the pram - and drove off.

The schoolboy saw what was happening and gesticulated wildly at the lorry until the driver stopped about 100 metres down the road, where the pram crashed to the floor.

Talk about having angels watching over us! Can someone please tell me what the mother was thinking, leaving her baby parked in front of a truck? That is just insane.

That schoolboy needs to have heaps of praise piled on him. He saved that baby's life. It's just a good thing he didn't panic. He did the right thing, and he should feel very proud of himself right now.
