Two year old rescues twin brother from fallen dresser (Video)

    A HORRIFIYING video of a chest of drawers falling on twin boys has since gone viral, globally.
    The video from Utah, US shows the duo happily climbing on the chest of drawers in their room, and moments later the drawer falls pinning one of the boy, Brock, underneath it.
    His twin brother after seen mulling how to free his twin, manages to push the chest of drawers off Brock.
    The boys' parents, Ricky and Kayli Shoff, say they were hesitant about sharing the video, but did so "in order to spread awareness to other families".
    And they say that all parents should be alerted to the dangers of unsecured furniture.
    Speaking to CBS News, Kayli and Ricky Shoff said they did not hear the furniture falling and only realised the full extent of the situation when they saw footage from the video camera in their sons' room.
    My heart sank," Kayli said. "I felt like the worst mom in the world."
    The chest of drawers has now been bolted to the wall and the handles removed from the drawers to prevent the boys from climbing on them.
    This is not the first time that the dangers posed to children by unsecured furniture have been highlighted.
    Last year, Ikea agreed to pay USD$50million (RM225 million) to the families of three toddlers killed by falling chests of drawers in the US. Millions of chests of drawers were recalled by the Swedish firm. — BBC
