SAN FRANCISCO --
The unbelievable accident closed off parts of California and Montgomery streets in San Francisco's Financial District Friday morning. A window washer fell approximately 60 feet from an 11th story building, landing on a moving car below. The victim survived but is in critical condition. It's hard to believe the driver of that car was not hurt.
The window washer fell from the roof and landed on a Toyota Camry. All but the driver's area was caved in. The driver, Mohammad Al Cozai, narrowly escaped being critically injured.
"As soon as I made my left turn, then I saw something hit my car very hard. The impact was really hard. I didn't know what it is," said Mohammad Al Cozai of Dublin.
After landing on the car, the window washer fell onto the street. Witnesses ran to help.

Cal/OSHA spokeswoman Julia Bernstein said the man suffered a broken arm and injuries to his side.
"I took off my jacket, I put it over him and I just started to direct traffic. I don't know anything about medical, so I did what I could," said witness Jess Cathcart.
The thud of the body onto the car and the shattering of the glass was what was, I guess shocking," said witness Sam Hartwell.
The man is an employee of Redwood City-based Century Window Cleaning. The federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration cited the company for safety violations four times in 2008, including one serious violation that resulted in a $6,740 penalty, according to the agency's website. The case was eventually settled, and the penalty was reduced to $2,720, Bernstein said.

SAN FRANCISCO -- A worker who fell 11 storeys from a San Francisco building onto a moving car, crushing its roof and sending shattered glass flying into the street survived but was in critical condition.
The man fell screaming from the roof of a downtown building Friday, but was conscious when paramedics reached the area, police said.
He remained in critical condition at a San Francisco Hospital Friday night, officials said.
The car's driver, Mohammad Alcozai, was not injured. He told KGO-TV that he's happy to be alive especially after his car's roof almost completely collapsed in the accident. He said he is praying that the worker survives.
"I'm very happy that I didn't get hurt," Alcozai told the news channel shortly after the accident. "Hopefully he can make it. I pray for him that he can make it."
Alcozai said he saw something hit his car shortly after making a left turn.
Witnesses described seeing a blue streak and the man's shadow as he fell and then hearing shattering glass as he hit the car and then rolled onto the ground. The roof of the car, a green Toyota Camry, was smashed in, and the rear windshield shattered.
Bianca Bahman, who was on the corner where the man fell, said she looked up to see his shadow and ran for cover.
"As he was coming down, he was definitely screaming," Bahman, 31, a pre-medical student at San Francisco State University said.

AP Photo/Sudhin Thanawala Police and citizens look over a car that has a caved in roof after a window washer fell at least 11 stories onto a moving vehicle in San Francisco, Friday, Nov. 21, 2014. Police say a San Francisco window washer has survived the fall.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) A worker fell screaming 11 stories from the roof of a bank building Friday morning onto a moving car, crushing its roof and sending shattered glass flying into the street, police and witnesses said.
The man suffered critical injuries, but he was conscious, police said.
The car's driver, Mohammad Alcozai, was not injured. He told KGO-TV that he's happy to be alive especially after his car's roof almost completely collapsed in the accident. He said he is praying that the worker survives.

"As he was coming down, he was definitely screaming," Bahman, 31, a pre-medical student at San Francisco State University who was on her way to the gym, said. "It all happened so quickly. It was so instantaneous."
The man, identified by police only as window washer, was moving equipment on the roof of a bank building in the heart of San Francisco's financial district and not on a window-washing platform when he fell, San Francisco police Sgt. Danielle Newman said. The platform was on the ground at the side of the building, and cables were hanging from its sides. It was not clear whether the man was setting the platform up, but he was working with a partner, police said.

SAN FRANCISCO (KPIX 5) A window washer who survived an 11-story fall from a building in San Franciscos Financial District Friday morning worked for an East Bay window washing company that had not received a citation in years.
The company, Century Window Cleaning of Concord has a fairly good safety record, but received several citations in 2008. Century Window Cleaning was fined more than $6,000 for violations involving the training of personnel and the use of equipment.
According to witnesses, the window washer and a co-worker were on the roof of the Sterling Bank & Trust building at California and Montgomery around 10 a.m. Friday morning. The pair was adjusting cables from the roof for their working platform on the ground.
When something went awry, the window washer fell 11 stories onto a moving car. The washer survived the impact and was taken to the hospital with critical injuries.
The driver of the car was not injured.

"He understood we were with him," Hartwell said.
