LYNDHURST, Ohio -- A little girl in Ohio was literally blown away during Wednesday's windstorm in the state.

Surveillance video shows Madison Gardner, 4, walk up the front stairs of her house and open the door. The wind then catches the door - sweeping both of them out of sight.

Her mom, Brittany Garnder, can be heard gasping before heading to help her daughter.

Luckily, she said, Madison wasn't hurt.

"She is totally OK," said Brittany. "She was scared at first, then was laughing away at it. She held on until I took her off the handle."

She set the video to Frank Sinatra's "Come Fly with Me" and posted it on her Facebook page, where it has been viewed nearly 20,000 times.
