A woman miraculously survived after her car plunged six stories from the top of a car park in Melbourne and became wedged between two buildings.
The Australian, in her 40s, was freed half an hour after the vehicle fell an estimated 100 feet, before becoming stuck at ground level between the walls of the car park and another building.
Paramedics are stunned after the 41-year-old woman lives to tell the tale of her fall after she survived a multi-storey plunge.
"The site was terrible. Just looking at it now, I'm not sure how the lady got out at all," said witness Michael Rockefeller.
"It sounded like a truck was crashing. The noise went on for five or six seconds. It was followed by a loud bang at the end."
Paramedics were shocked to see that she only sustained a few cuts.
