A chilling video has gone viral on social media, capturing a scooter rider’s astonishing escape from what could have been a tragic accident. The 10-second clip, shared by X user Mikku, has left viewers both stunned and relieved as they witness the man’s extraordinary luck and calm demeanour.
The incident occurred when the rider, navigating a scooter, struck a ramp built in front of a divider, causing him to lose control. As his scooter skidded out of his grasp, he was thrown forward, landing squarely on the bonnet of an oncoming pickup truck. The driver’s quick reflexes in slamming the brakes averted a potentially fatal collision.
