Photos/Video: Nigerian woman & her 3 kids survive plunge from burning 4-storey building in South Korea

A 30 year old Nigerian woman, Precious Enyioko, and her three children
trapped on the fourth storey of a building in Pyeongtaek, South Korea,
miraculously survived without injuries after they jumped from the
building during a fire incident last weekend.

Precious dangled her baby through the window as smoke billowed from two
floors below. This drew the attention of onlookers, who screamed and
waved their hands as she held out her terrified one-year-old infant
whose legs were kicking furiously before dropping her to the crowd...

Confident that her children will land safely, Precious threw her
three-year-old child and then another four-year-old before she leaped
from the window. Miraculously, all four of them survived without any
injury.

Her husband, Prince Enyioko, said he felt helpless after returning home from work to find his family trapped by the blaze.

'I tried to help my family but I couldn't. I was so surprised to see
people gathering here to rescue my family especially the military. I
felt so helpless.' he said

United States Air Force Master, Sgt. Daniel Raimondo, who was at the
scene of the incident, told CNN he was walking to have dinner at the
weekend when he saw clouds of smoke and set off in that direction. On
assessing the scene, Raimondo and a colleague discussed how to help and
resolved to get some blankets from a nearby store. They held the
blankets and then persuaded the mother to drop her children to safety.
First, Sgt. Melanie Scott said the woman was understandably reluctant to
let go of her children.

“You could tell she was scared. She didn’t want to,”he said.

Raimondo said the “last baby was the most difficult in my eyes, she just
wouldn’t let her go for some reason.” He said he repeatedly begged the
mother: “Please just throw the baby down! I remember her screaming (at)
the baby, “I love you, I love you. …” Next thing you know she dropped
the baby. You’re alive! By this time, the mother had to jump. The smoke
and the fire was just horrendous, You could barely even see her at that
point.”

The woman fell more heavily than the children and hit the ground beneath
the blanket, but someone had had the foresight to put cushions
underneath it,” he said.

“We carried her into a safe location into a salon,” he said. “I just
kept yelling and talking to her, ‘You’re alive! You’re alive!’. She flew
like Supergirl.”

Raimondo said he sat with the first child to be rescued in the aftermath
Saturday and held her while her mother, suffering from smoke
inhalation, sat in shock. “I let her know that she was very brave and
she flew like Supergirl. She just smiled,” he said. “It was an emotional
experience. The good news is they made it through alive.”
