A freak accident in China’s Gansu Province where a heavy truck fell over on a bridge, going straight through the barrier and throwing the poor driver out of the cabin. Miraculously the driver managed to hold on, hanging ten meters above a rocky dry river bed, falling down meaning a certain death.

Fortunately heroes of the fire department of the great city of Qinyang got there in time and saved the man, who appeared to be barely wounded. After checking up on his vehicle he was finally convinced to check in at a local hospital. What exactly caused the accident is yet unknown, police is investigating.
