A tricyclist had a miraculous escape after being caught in the middle of a deadly crash in Beijing that killed two people on May 9, 2010.
The surveillance camera shows how a black car hit a white vehicle while waiting for a green light. The force of the crash blasted the two cars into different directions, narrowly missing the three-wheeler caught in between.
The man riding the tricycle first passed the smashed black car which then plunged into a moving bus. If that wasn't lucky enough, he then scarily missed the out-of-control white car by a whisker.
The tricyclist shot to fame on the Internet after the video of the accident was released during a television news report.
