A pedestrian had a lucky escape in Turkey yesterday when a truck driving along the motorway with its back compartment raised, crashed through the footbridge above.
If you look at the top left of the video footage, you will see a person walking, and then stopping as the oversize vehicle passes, only to fall to the ground when the overpass breaks.
The lorry hit the bridge, which collapsed.
Miraculously, the pedestrian suffered only minor injuries.
The driver says the back of the lorry came up suddenly on its own accord, reports CBBC.
Police are looking into the incident.
