An apartment complex fire forced a dad and his 3-month-old daughter onto their upstairs patio where the dad dropped his daughter to safety. See the video…

This firefighter from St. Paul is being called even more of a hero than usual after video of him catching a baby tossed from an upper level apartment balcony is going viral. See the amazing rescue below:

Startribune.com says that the father and the baby were forced onto their balcony because of the fire and that the father dropped his daughter into the arms of the firefighter! Thankfully, it was a great catch and the baby was safe.

The firefighter said:

“We don’t practice that. We don’t have drills where we throw stuff off the balcony. Nothing comes close to that.”

No casualties were caused by the fire and the firefighter went on to rescue two cats, too.
