Incredibly lucky moment caught on camera as a hiker in the Fanzengjian Mountains of China’s Anhui province had an uncontrolled fall down a slick mountainside arrested by a tree.
42-year-old Yang Meng lost his footing on top of a steep section of exposed rock that was slippery due to recent typhoon rains and ended up plunging feet first with no way to stop himself. Thankfully he collided with a tree which brought his speedy descent to an abrupt stop.
Meng credits the tree with saving his life and only suffered minor injuries to his hand and thigh.
