A Chinese man in Shaanxi Province saved his wife from falling to her death by pulling on her hair.

Following a heated dispute with her husband, the distraught woman attempted to commit suicide by leaping off the roof of a 20-story building.

The woman’s husband however managed to catch her at the last possible moment by grabbing her ponytail. With one hand grasping his wife’s hair and the other desperately clutching to the railing, the man nevertheless managed to hold on for about three minutes until a team of police officers arrived at the scene and helped pull both people back on the roof.

​​According to South China Morning Post, the woman looked very distressed during the incident and kept screaming "Let go!" even when the police officers were pulling her back to safety.

​It should be noted that while human hair can in theory support considerable weight, human scalp is much less durable. However, it appears that during the incident the woman’s body was also partially supported by a 30cm-wide pipe which helped reduce the strain on her hair and scalp, and allowing her husband to hold on long enough for help to arrive, the newspaper adds.
