Syrian soldier narrowly dodges ISIS missile

A Syrian rebel fighter had no idea how close he came to death after an RPG whistled past his head before decimating a building.

Video posted on January 9 purportedly shows Southern Front rebel fighters pitted in a heated battle with ISIS forces in Syria.

Armed with a tank, the rebels appear to be holding their own until the ISIS combat unit launches a missile attack.

As one of the rebel fighters starts to climb into the tank something flashes past his head. A slow motion shot reveals the near-invisible object is in fact a deadly missile which narrowly misses the side of his face as it whistles past and destroys a building behind him.

The video which has been seen more than 25000 time has garnered a variety of comments with most users thanking God for the near miss.
