Dramatic VIDEO shows man jumping out of burning shopping mall in Russia

A desperate young man was filmed jumping from the third story of a blazing shopping mall in Russia’s Kemerovo after smoke forced him to hang out of a window. A crowd of people can be seen on the ground attempting to catch him.

It was not immediately clear whether the jumper survived the ordeal, but Russia’s Investigative Committee said three women, one man and a child were presumed dead in the fire.
