It happened Monday afternoon and it was all caught on camera.
The driver said he saw the 7-year-old crawl onto an air conditioner and start dancing.
He says he tried to keep her calm and then she lost her balance.
The little girl is fine.
Her rescuer suffered a muscle tear in his arm, but he says he'll be okay.
The NYPD says no charges have been filed against the girl's parents.
