Coincidence?

In the 1930s, street sweeper Joseph Figlock was walking down an alley when a baby fell from a window on the fourth floor of a building and landed on him. Both were injured but lived. One year later, the same baby fell from the same window and landed on Figlock again. Like before, both were injured but lived.

Austrian painter Joseph Matthäus Aigner attempted to hang himself at age 18. However, a mysterious Capuchin monk intervened and saved his life. Four years later, at age 22, Aigner attempted to hang himself again but the same Capuchin monk prevented him from doing so. At age 30 Aigner was sentenced to death because of his political views. Once again, the same Capuchin monk intervened and Aigner was able to walk away alive. He finally successfully committed suicide at age 68 with a pistol. The same Capuchin monk presided over his funeral. Aigner never learned his name.
