A Ukrainian man miraculously managed to escape unharmed after the road collapsed underneath him as he was driving.
Gordey Efremov was travelling home in the city of Dnipropetrovsk in south-eastern Ukraine, when the ground suddenly vanished below.
Images from the accident show Mr Efremov's 4x4 lying on its side in a giant pothole, practically swallowed by the road.
Mr Efremov had been travelling in his Lada Niva when he suddenly found the ground vanishing underneath him.
He said: ‘Because of the rain, traffic was going slowly anyway and then when the car in front of me stopped I put on the brakes, and slow down.
Then I suddenly got this sinking feeling and before I knew it was disappearing into the road.
‘The car tipped onto its side and muddy waters started to flood in through the air vents and door.
‘I had to open the window above and climb out where some people helped me onto the street
Down the drain: The driver of the Lada Niva, Gordey Efremov, was able to climb out of the car and escaped unharmed
‘I escaped without a scratch but that's more than can be said from the car which was pretty badly broken up.’
Police said the broken drain had been leaking rainwater into the soil underneath the road, washing away the foundations and causing it to collapse when the car stopped.
Police spokesman Leonid Pokrovski said: ‘It was an accident waiting to happen.
‘As long as the cars were moving fast over the top it bore the weight, but once a motorist stopped it was too much and it gave way.
