A quick-thinking man narrowly escaped being struck by an out of control Volkswagen Beetle with an impressive jump.

The man was pulled over to the side of the road in his Mini Cooper with the door open when suddenly the Beetle traveling in the opposite direction loses control and heads straight for the man in his parked car.

Unaware where the car would go, the man runs out of his vehicle in an attempt to escape the danger. But unfortunately in exiting his vehicle, the man puts himself directly into the path of the Beetle, only escaping with a swift jump and inches to spare.

Regardless, his jump was impressive and both drivers walked away from the scene.
