Jens Wilhelms, a 27-year-old man from Germany, ran into some bad luck recently, but it turned into good luck for a 57-year-old woman. Wilhelms had been frustrated that his apartment building’s elevator had been out of order: “I saw the door open and I just wanted to check whether somebody was finally working on the elevator. I took a closer look…and must have slipped off the edge somehow.” Amazingly, Wilhelms landed on top of a middle-aged woman who had fallen down the shaft just a day earlier. He was able to squeeze out of the shaft to get help. A police officer said, “Although [his fall] made her injuries worse, it also probably saved her life…it meant he knew she was there and managed to get help.”
