A 12-year-old girl who fell 14 floors down a chimney in her apartment block in New York was saved by a pile of soot at the bottom.
Grace Bergere suffered only an injured hip after she landed in 2ft (60cm) of soot in the basement furnace of the building in the West Village area.
Her father described her survival as an "absolute miracle".
The building's janitor said he was glad he had not had the chimney swept.
