“'I was sitting in the car and waiting to deliver some belongings for a client in the opposite building when I heard a child crying - I just thought that the baby had been scolded by their parents,” the driver told the local newspaper Anninhthudo.
Later he added, “I jumped out of the car immediately, trying to find ways to climb the nearby building. I mounted on a two-meter-high tile roof to seek a proper position to get the girl.”
Nguyen said he lost his footing for a moment and had to throw himself forward to catch the toddler. Luckily, she landed perfectly on his lap.
“When the incident happened I did not think much. Seeing the baby, I immediately thought of my daughter at home and hurriedly tried to save her,” said Nguyen.
Netizens gave a huge round of applause to the delivery man and shared tweets.
