Pedestrians manage to cheat death after being caught up in crash

Two pedestrians have managed to survive a crash between an ambulance and a car that sent them airborne and flying across the road in China.

CCTV from the intersection shows the moment the ambulance runs through a red light before clipping the back of a car.

The impact sends the car spinning out of control before it hurtles towards the two pedestrians who are attempting to cross the road.

The impact flings the pair into the air before they come to a rest a metre or so away from the scene of the crash.

Miraculously the pair only sustained minor fractures in the incident.
