Michael Stamp
A Perth man has walked away unscathed after his bedroom ceiling collapsed on him.
The 23-year-old was getting ready for work just after 6am when he heard noises in his roof.
Only minutes later, the roof peeled back and caved in.

He was trapped inside the room for around 15 minutes before calling his roommate for help and climbed out the window.
Maintenance workers quickly removed the rubble from the room, claiming it crashed down due to old age.
The landlord is insured.
