An Australian woman had a lucky escape when a parking error came close to killing her. The woman was manoeuvring her car into a tight space on a multi-storey car park in Melbourne when the vehicle broke through a barrier and fell nearly 20m to the ground. Witnesses described seeing the car bounce off a building to the rear and then bounce off the car park during its descent. The impacts appear to have slowed the vehicle's fall sufficiently for the woman to survive the incident. She was taken to hospital after emergency crews arrived but she only suffered comparatively minor injuries.
