VIDEO: Dramatic rescue after toddler falls two-storeys

Emma Davies (28) found little Noah Oxley lying on the concrete patio in the family’s back garden on Witham Way, Brampton Bierlow, making a “quiet moaning noise”.

Noah had suffered a fractured skull and a small bleed on the brain, but has now made a full recovery in time to enjoy an extra special family Christmas.

Emma has thanked the Yorkshire Air Ambulance (YAA) team for their swift actions on the day, which she believed saved her son’s life.

Noah’s story was told on the documentary show Helicopter ER this week, which you can still watch on the uktvplay website in full.

Here is a clip of the rescue:

Recalling the day in July when the accident happened, Emma said: “My four-year-old daughter had been playing a game and opened the bedroom window.

“Noah must have somehow climbed from the bed onto the window ledge and fallen.

“My daughter came running out of the bedroom to say Noah had fallen out of the window and I just ran as fast as I could to the back garden.

“He was lying on the patio very still and making a quiet moaning noise. 

“I was just hysterical \a it’s just your worst nightmare.”

The emergency services were called and the air ambulance was able to land right in front of the family home to take Noah, now aged two, to Sheffield Children’s Hospital.

“I think Noah survived because he got to hospital so quickly,” said Emma.

“It was literally minutes in the helicopter from our house and we can’t thank them enough.” 

The dramatic incident was captured by a TV documentary crew and featured on Monday’s episode of Helicopter ER, which follows the YAA,

It was aired on UKTV’s reality channel Really and is still available online.

The helicopter pilot flew Noah and Emma 15 miles in seven minutes and Emma said she believed the speed of the rapid response emergency service saved her son’s life. 

To say thank you, the family recently organised a ten-mile sponsored walk in aid of independent charity YAA which raised more than £3,000.

The emergency service serves five million people across Yorkshire and carries out over 1,250 missions every year from its two bases at RAF Topcliffe, near Thirsk, and Nostell near Wakefield.

The charity, which has just replaced its two, ageing aircrafts with state-of-the-art airbus H145 helicopters, needs to raise £12,000 per day to keep both air ambulances in the air and maintained.
