A driver is lucky to be alive after flipping his car while speeding on a beach and being thrown from the vehicle, flying through the air like a crash test dummy.
Dramatic footage shows the moment the Toyota FJ Cruiser speeds across the sand, seemingly out of control as it zigzags between sea and sand.
The SUV sprays water into the air as the driver speeds along the shore, forcing a man who was dipping his feet on the quiet beach to climb out of the sea as the car rushes towards him.
The SUV appears to catch an edge before flipping and turning several times, before coming to a stop on its side.
As it rolls through the water, the driver is thrown high into the air, flipping over several times himself before crashing into the sea next to his overturned car.
A man bathing in the sea is seen running for his life as the video rushes towards him.
The car swerves before appearing to catch an edge and begins rolling on the sand.
The water seems to have broken his fall and, incredibly, the man gets up immediately.

He seems to shake off his pain and stumble onto the beach.
Stunned beachgoers rush to check on him and gather around as the man sits down on the sand.
The cameraman bursts out laughing after seeing the bizarre scenes unfold.
The video was filmed on Saturday at the Abu Hasaniya public beach near Kuwait City, Kuwait.
Firefighters were called to the scene to pull the Cruiser from the water, according to reports.
Officials from Mubarak Al-Kabeer governorate reportedly seized the vehicle.

It is unclear whether the 34-year-old driver faces any punishment for the incident on the beach.

A local said: “He didn’t have his seat belt on, it’s like giving a child a knife as a toy.”
Another commented: “What kind of idiot drives on the beach? Third class mentality.
