A 31-year old pregnant woman, Erin Ruth Juarez, fell 4 stories in her car yesterday and survived with only minor injuries. The car fell 40-feet down onto the road after the pregnant woman accidentally pushed reverse in a parking garage in Springfield Massachusets on June 23 and her car drove through a gate-barrier.

Some say Juarez miraculously survived with few injuries because she was wearing a seatbelt. It might also have been a miracle.

Cookie Rivera was driving with her family when a scene straight from the movies played out before her eyes.

"In the blink of an eye. It happened so fast," Rivera says.

Witnesses say her blue Hyundai Sonata was sent airborne, and flipped once while dropping four stories.

The pregnant woman was treated for minor injuries at a local hospital and then released.
