Landslide hits car, driver and passengers walk away unhurt in China
The driver stops as he realises what is about to happen.

HOW did they survive? Dramatic video has emerged of a car being hit by a landslide as floods and heavy rains engulf China.

The footage shows the driver trying to get away from the deluge, but changing his mind when he realises what is happening.

Two men escaped from the car once the initial landslide eased and two others were rescued soon after, according to reports from Shaanxi province.

It has been reported that none of the car's occupants suffered major injuries.

Higher than normal rainfall has caused widespread flooding and landslides across China's northwest over the past few weeks, displacing hundreds of thousands of people.
