Tragic man dangles from 6th floor window before falling to death trying to escape fire

WARNING, DISRESSING FOOTAGE: The New York City Fire Department confirmed four people were initially injured, with three having serious injuries, and the fourth was able to walk away unscathed

A man is seen dangling from a window before dying in a fall while desperately trying to escape a blazing fire in his sixth-floor apartment.

According to neighbours, two men, who were working on the building, were seen dangling from the top floor windows before plummeting to the ground after a loud explosion at East Flatbush fire on Rockaway Parkway at around 2pm, in harrowing scenes.

One of the men landed on a small patch of grass in front of the building and was taken to the hospital in a serious condition.

A second man fell onto the pavement just a short distance away, with neighbours running to try and help him but the 49-year-old sadly died from his injuries a short while later.
