A Russian man was seen in a viral video dangling his three-year-old son from a 14th-floor window ledge for more than two hours while threatening to drop him to his death to punish his wife for “cheating”.

For two-and-a-half hours, Roman Terentyev, 34, held little Maksim “on the brink of death”, ignoring the toddler as he cried out, “I am scared, let me go.”

After a tense standoff with police and negotiations with his wife, Olga Terenteva, 40, the toddler was released from Terentyev’s grasp and Russian national guards arrested him.
