An impressive video captured by a dashcam in Miami has gone viral after showing a young man on his electric scooter being struck by a car in the middle of an intersection.
However, what's truly incredible about the incident is not the accident itself, but how the young man emerged unscathed after a somersault that seems straight out of an action movie.
En las imágenes, difundidas por la cuenta de Instagram @onlyindade, se observa al hombre atravesando una transitada avenida mientras varios vehículos se aproximan.
In a matter of seconds, one of the cars strikes him, sending him flying through the air. But against all odds, the young man manages to jump, dodges the impact of the car, performs a somersault in mid-air, lands, rolls, gets back up, and continues on his way as if nothing had happened.
The clip has generated a wave of reactions on social media. Comments like “Take him to the Olympics,” “His reflexes are from another planet,” and “He’s the black Spider-Man” are flooding the post.
Others, more critical, pointed out that the young man crossed on a red light, making him responsible for the crash: "You can't walk down the middle of the street as if you were a car," wrote a user.
Some internet users joked about the incident: “It went from skateboarding to walking in a second,” “It’s a miracle,” and “If that doesn’t make it to the Top 10 of ESPN, I’ll be upset.”
Beyond the debate about traffic regulations, the general consensus is clear: the young man was fortunate. The images not only shocked due to the violence of the impact but also because the protagonist of the video managed to walk away from the scene without any apparent injuries.
A scene that undoubtedly encapsulates the phrase: "only in Miami."
