A seven-year-old boy from China has survived after intimating a cartoon character and leaping out from a 10th-storey window with an umbrella.

The child who had been left at home alone by his parents was found seriously injured on April 15 after landing on the ground with his 'umbrella parachute', according to Huanqiu, a publication affiliated to People's Daily.

He has escaped death after being rushed to the hospital in critical condition.

The child, seven, was found lying on the ground injured with his red umbrella in China

A set of photos published by CCTV on Weibo shows the boy lying injured on the ground with his red umbrella in Jiangsu Province.

A 23-second video clip, posted to QQ.com, shows his mother who collapsed at the scene upon seeing her son. The case was immediately reported to police.

The boy was sent to the Affiliated Children's Hospital of Suzhou University for emergency treatment, according to Huanqiu.

He was critically injured while he was taken to the hospital. Yet his conditions are not life-threatening now, a doctor said.

The boy, inspired by an animated character, decided to leap from the window holding an umbrella as a parachute on April 15

The doctor also said that the boy had been left alone at his home in Kunshan city. His parents expected him to watch cartoon by himself.

Inspired by an animated character he likes, the child decided to leap from the window holding an umbrella as a parachute.

The report did not state which cartoon the boy had been watching before the incident.

His home is located on the 10th storey and all flats in the building are reportedly two-storey high.

Luckily his fall was partially intervened by an utility pole which the boy hit before landing on the cement ground next to a hair salon. This has apparently saved his life.

Similar incident happened last month in China's Urumqi city in Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.

A five-year-old girl reportedly jumped out of a window on the 11th floor after watching a popular Chinese cartoon named 'Boonie Bears'.

She jumped from the window wearing a backpack and carrying an umbrella. The little girl suffered severe injuries after landing on a cement platform on the fourth floor.
