Chilling footage shows police catching two toddlers who were dropped from a burning building by their panicked mum.
The brave children, aged two and three, were likened to Spiderman by officers after the terrifying rescue, which happened in Indianapolis.
Bodycam video released by police catches the moment the youngsters plunge to safety after a fire broke out in their block of flats earlier this month.
Their mum is shown screaming: "Please help me! Help me! Please hurry. I can't breathe. I have my kids in here."
It is believed the fire started when a man in his 70s accidentally knocked over a chair which in turn knocked over a candle, causing his apartment to go up in flames.
The Indianapolis Fire Department said it happened at around 3.30am on April 11.
The clip shows a police officer, identified as Officer Carroll, telling the mum: "Ma'am, can you hear me? Ma'am, do you want to try passing them down to me?"
The mum is then seen dropping a screaming child out the window to be caught by Officer Carroll.
He then catches the second child, aged three, before the mum leaps for safety.
Officer Carroll is assisted by a colleague, identified as Officer Hupp, as the childrens' mother jumps from the window.
Officer Hupp can be heard telling the children: "You guys are so brave.
"One day, you're going to get to tell a story about how you jumped out a two-story window.
"You and your badass mom, out here jumping out a window... you're like Spiderman!'
It is not known whether any of the trio suffered any injuries.
Around 20 residents were evacuated from the building when the fire broke out, and it took around 40 minutes to bring the flames under control.
