A woman jumps for her life from a burning building on the third night of violence in London.

This shot of an unidentified woman, jumping from the building set ablaze by rioters, was posted by a Londoner on Twitter.

A group of people, some who appear to be emergency workers, stood below to catch her with arms outstretched. They caught her safely and she ran off, apparently unhurt, the Daily Mirror said.

According to a witness, "The flames were so fierce the woman had no choice but to jump."

The episode, in the Croydon neighborhood of London, was just feet away from the century-old Reeves furniture store, which was destroyed by fire.

The photo of the woman jumping is shown here.
