A Polish man survived a fall from a fourth floor balcony without a scratch after he hit a clothes line and bounced into bushes.

Robert Kaminski, 24, slipped and fell from the balcony at his flat in Biala Podlaska, in south east Poland.

He hit the washing line hanging over the balcony of a flat three storeys below. Witnesses said he then bounced off the washing line and landed in bushes.

He was taken to hospital but doctors said he had been completely unhurt by the fall.

Kaminski said: “The doctors said I would have certainly died if it had not been for that washing line. I feel like I’ve been born again.”
