When a tractor trailer driver lost control in an underwater tunnel in China, it swerved into the other lane, leaving the driver of the car behind with few options. But the motorist, miraculously, made the right moves and survived the crash.

In the video, it looks like the car was enveloped and crushed by the trailer, but according to various Chinese news outlets, it slipped beneath the trailer before the careening truck smashed into the tunnel's wall. The little space beneath the trailer was enough to protect the car, sparing the driver's life. (Hat tip to @beijingcream!)
