The man, Kwon Young-jun, was working out on the 52nd floor of the skyscraper when the earthquake hit … and his wife, named as Ms. Bowyuri by local media, was at their home with their 1-year-old daughter on the 30th floor of a neighboring tower.
After crossing over the unstable bridge, he reportedly walked down 40 flights of stairs upon realizing the building was evacuated. He was reunited with his family, with no reported injuries.
TMZ reported the news last week … the earthquake struck near Myanmar’s second-largest city, Mandalay, sending shockwaves through Southeast Asia.
Buildings toppled down and roadways were destroyed between the original quake and the 6.4-magnitude aftershock.
As of Monday morning, survivors were reportedly still being found … but the death toll has already risen above 2,700.
