In an extraordinary event during Friday's 7.7 magnitude earthquake centered in Myanmar, a Thai woman named Kanthong Saenmuangshin gave birth on a rolling hospital bed as the facility was being evacuated. The powerful quake shook buildings in Bangkok, Thailand, necessitating patient relocation to secure areas.

Kanthong, who was at the Police General Hospital for a routine check-up, went into labor amid tremors. Her waters broke as medical staff assisted her down staircases, raising concerns she'd deliver on the stairway.
