Security guard forced to flee indoor tsunami

A security guard in Brazil was unexpectedly confronted with a wall of water after a flash flood swept through an underground car park.

The guard was strolling through the car park in Sao Paulo last Thursday when the huge torrent came gushing from around a corner, sending the man running for safety.

He wasn't alone, with another man running off while a passing car hits the accelerator to escape the mini indoor tsunami.

The flood was reportedly caused by a wall collapse as Sao Paulo was hit with heavy rain throughout last week.

Several surrounding streets were closed due to the downpour, making one major headache for insurers and cleaners.
