A woman who plummeted 100ft from her ninth floor apartment had a lucky escape thanks to a giant vat of grapes.
Lumilla Vasko's fall was cushioned when she landed by chance in the huge container of fruit, Ananova reports.
Police called to the apartment in Uzhgorod, Ukraine, said the 29-year-old was "very shocked" by the incident. The grapes had been harvested from a nearby vineyard and were waiting in the vat to be crushed.
"She was still sitting in the vat of squashed grapes when we got there," a police spokesman said, adding: "But doctors examined her and said she was absolutely fine apart from the shock. The grapes cushioned her fall.
"She saved the winemakers a bit of work as well in the process because she crushed most of the grapes when she landed on them."
