Cyclist survives harrowing crash with 14-wheel trailer in China
You have to watch the video to believe it.
This Chinese cyclist must count himself as a lucky man to be alive after being run over by a trailer with 14 wheels in Ningbo, a city in east China's Zhejiang province.
CCTV footage shows how he is in the blind spot of the trailer (above) and is run over when it turns to the right.
He falls under the truck.
And disappears out of sight.
Then there is a glimpse of a bicycle tyre as the trailer moves forward.
As the view clears, we heave a collective breathe of relief to see that he is alive.
He appears to be physically unscathed and sits up.
One can only wonder how this dear-death experience will impact him.
