A 70-year-old woman in Shanghai forgot to grab her keys when she left home on Monday morning.

It was the third time that the woman, surnamed Xu, had forgotten.

Rather than seeking help from neighbors or a locksmith, she decided to solve the problem herself.

She climbed onto the exterior windowsill and strode toward the window of her fifth-floor apartment. However, she got stuck on the sill.

After one hour, she was spotted by a worried neighbor. Firemen came later and rescued her.
