00:00Oh no, you're going to be in big trouble with the news about the accidents caught on cam.
00:14What does the law say about these incidents?
00:17Ask me, ask Attorney Gabby.
00:21The first thing we're going to talk about is this young man who was hit by a metal railing.
00:27The CCTV footage shows a 4-year-old boy wearing sandals on a metal railing.
00:37Another child can be seen climbing up the railing and moving behind it.
00:43Later, the railings fell and the victim was injured.
00:48The child was taken to the hospital, but he was also burned because of the wound.
00:56Well, the question is, who can be responsible for these incidents?
01:02Especially if there's a chance of survival.
01:05Well, even if there's a chance of survival, not all the time, someone will be responsible.
01:11Like in this case, the possible cause of the incident is also a young boy.
01:16We know that the child has no criminal liability.
01:20Under our law, a child less than 15 years old has no criminal liability.
01:27But it can also be considered as an accident.
01:33Of course, it's a different situation, and if we can say that there was neglect,
01:39there are also cases involving minors.
01:44Sometimes, the parents can answer the so-called Civil Liability for Damages
01:51for the crime committed by their minors.
01:58Here's the next video that happened in India.
02:02Oh, it's a bit close, just a bit.
02:05You can see a woman walking in the video.
02:09Later, a tank fell on her.
02:13But the woman didn't get hurt, and her head was still out of the hole on top of the tank.
02:19The tank fell while a scrap collector was cleaning the terrace.
02:26Look at that, right?
02:28The question is, if this happens to you,
02:33that you're walking and something suddenly falls,
02:36will you chase after it?
02:38Especially if the incident wasn't intentional.
02:41Of course, you will chase after it.
02:43In fact, under Article 2193 of our Civil Code,
02:47it states that the father of the family
02:51who lives in a building or in a part of it
02:55will be responsible for the damages
02:57because of the things that were thrown or fell from here.
03:01But people who live in houses should always be conscious
03:08that people who walk on the sidewalk or on the road below
03:12might be hit by things from above.
03:15That's why they should be responsible if something falls from above.
03:23This is also according to the general rule that there should be no negligence.
03:28Otherwise, if you are negligent,
03:31and you hurt someone or damaged someone's property,
03:35you should be responsible for it.
03:38Especially in this case where it's not natural or normal
03:42that a whole tank of water falls from the sky.
03:46If that happens here, that's one case for damages.
03:55That woman was really lucky, right?
03:58So watch that video again.
04:00In any case, we will talk about the law.
04:02We will clarify things here.
04:04For peace of mind, don't think twice.
04:09Ask me, ask Eternigan.
