Slowmotion footage shows how cats survive falls from great heights.

In 2012, a cat in the US city of Boston survived a fall from a 19storey window with only minor bruising.

Sugar's fall was one of the highest ever survived by a cat. But while she is incredibly lucky to be alive, all cats have the potential to survive such spectacular falls thanks to an extraordinary instinct.

Using extremely highspeed cameras, documentary makers are able to show how they do it in the video above.
