An emergency escape structure is provided for use on the exteriors of high buildings having outwardly projecting vertically spaced balcony structures. The escape structure includes a vertically extendable upright mounting structure for vertical expansion between, tight frictional engagement with and anchoring between the upper and under surfaces of adjacent vertically spaced lower and upper balcony structures. A horizontal support frame is supported from and projects outwardly of the mounting structure intermediate the upper and lower ends thereof and the support frame includes a generally horizontally disposed flexible catch structure supported therefrom at points spaced about the periphery of the catch structure. Further, the escape structure may have its mounting portion mounted within a room of a building adjacent the outer wall of that room and with the net portion of the escape structure projected through a window opening in the outer wall.
