Man Barely Misses Getting Hit With A Massive Sheet Of Falling Glass (Video)

by Sean Levinson

Surveillance footage captured in Saudi Arabia appears to show a man just barely avoiding being sliced open by a falling pane of glass.

Originally posted to LiveLeak, the video begins with the man walking slowly down the sidewalk on a busy road and then stopping for about a second to look at the bottom of his shoe.

Huffington Post notes he likely spared himself from serious injury by choosing to pause at that exact moment.

A few seconds go by before a sheet of glass comes plunging downward, seemingly scraping the man's shoulder and arm as he is thrown to the ground.

One cannot be certain if the glass scraped the man's head, or if the footage is even real, but he gets up immediately after the incident and appears to be completely unharmed when he walks away.
