Mexican ‘miraculously’ escapes death after collision with trailer

This terrible scene shows a driver miraculously ejecting himself from his entirely destroyed vehicle after it was struck by a lorry.

Two males are seen in the video forcing open the door of the orange automobile before the driver abruptly jumps out, appearing unharmed.

In the footage, a man can be heard exclaiming in Spanish, “Yes, he is alive!”

He’s out, he’s out! yells another.

Then they are seen standing back and staring in awe at the debris.

Images show the car nearly completely crushed under the large vehicle’s trailer, with another lorry having apparently rear-ended it in Santa Cruz, Mexico, on Tuesday.

The front of the car is completely torn off and destroyed.

The police arrived on the scene shortly after the images were filmed and cordoned off the area, according to local media.

Two tow trucks were then used to remove the vehicles on the road.

Local media said the orange car had been hit by one of the lorries, causing it to become trapped under the other HGV.

The police are understood to be investigating the crash.
