The child, from southern Poland, has appeared on television to telling the story of how he caught the toddler.
Footage, which appeared on the TVN24 channel shows the boy, only identified as Maciek, smiling as he shows the window, some 10 feet above ground, that three-year-old Kordian jumped from, in the town of Czechowice-Dziedzice.
Maciek and another boy were playing nearby when they saw little Kordian gearing up to jump.
Kordian, he said, "jumped and I caught him".
The police were called and found Kordian's mother and grandfather were sleeping after consuming alcohol.
Local police spokeswoman Elwira Jurasz said on TVN24 that Maciek will be rewarded for saving the child from potential injuries.
