In an amazing video shot on Saturday night at Hard Rock Stadium during the Miami Hurricanes’ home opener against Appalachian State, a cat survived a plummet from the stadium’s upper deck when fans holding an American flag caught the falling feline with The Stars and Stripes.

For the first eight seconds of the video, the cat grips onto the facade in the northwest area of the stadium, before it ends up holding onto a cable for 20 more seconds — all while the fans holding Old Glory (and another group similarly spreading open a UM flag) position themselves underneath.
