A construction worker has been rescued from a burning building in Houston, Texas moments before it collapsed.

Footage recorded by an eyewitness shows the man jumping from floor to floor before climbing onto crane.

He is then lowered to safety as the top floor of the property crashes down. He was not injured.

Saw this on the news.. An hour later the man was back at work!!
I dont think I`d want to live in a multi story timber framed building in the U.S.. That video demonstrates why.
