(Undated) — Bubble wrap is being credited with saving the life of a falling man. According to Boston’s WCVB TV, the 38-year old construction worker fell 30 feet off a building. But apparently, he dropped from scaffolding that was wrapped in bubble wrap, and landed on a pile of the wrap. When firefighters arrived they found the man stuck in the pile, and had to cut him from the poppable package stuffer. While the man did suffer back and shoulder injuries, his bubble-soft landing helped save his life.
