A Russian man survived after downing three bottles of vodka and leaping from a
fifth floor balcony - twice.

Alexei Roskov says he jumped the second time because he couldn't take his
wife's nagging about the first time.

Wife Yekaterina had watched in horror as her drunken hubsand opened the
kitchen window of their Moscow apartment, and hurled himself out.

Astonishingly Mr Roskov, 22, survived and managed to stagger back upstairs
with barely a scratch after the 50ft fall.

But while his wife called for an ambulance and began to scold him, he jumped
again.

Amazed medics treated Mr Roskov for minor cuts and bruises before releasing
him.

Mr Roskov says he is now teetotal after giving up drinking, and added: "Now I
can say just one thing - I was very lucky.

"I have no idea why I jumped the first time but when I came back up and I
heard my wife screaming angrily at me I thought it was best if I left the room
again - out of the window."
