Typhoon winds have ripped a security guard’s office from its foundations, leaving him sitting in his chair on a cement slab.

Surveillance video was posted to YouTube on Saturday after Typhoon Haima made landfall into southern China.

The camera filmed 166km/h winds tear the small office structure from the ground while a man was sheltering inside.

The shed is flung through the air while the man falls off his chair in shock.

He suffered no serious injuries, CCTV reports.

The typhoon carved a line of destruction last week through South East Asia, killing 13 people in the Philippines and one man in Hong Kong.

More than 720,000 were evacuated from the Guangdong Province in China, RT reports.
