"Oh my gosh, the girl is walking. Good gracious!" the nurse dressed in surgical robes with a clinical mask over her mouth, is heard crying out in amazement. "I was trying to wash her here and she keeps getting up to walk," said the midwife pointing with one hand to where she initially tried to lay the baby down to give the child her first bath.
"If you told people what has just happened no one would believe it unless they saw it with their own eyes," the midwife holding the baby girl was quoted by ' The Sun' as saying.
The video, which was uploaded to social media on May 26 has stunned viewers who declare the baby's attempt to walk nothing short of a miracle. The logo on the midwife's robes suggest that she works at a Santa Cruz Hospital in south Brazil.

Amazing.
Exactly like cars that speed after coming out of a dark tunnel.
So there is this Brazilian baby girl who started walking just after birth.
