A gentleman who narrowly escaped death by a hair's breadth rushed towards a wall, where he humbly knelt on the ground, offering thanks to his Maker.
The dramatic incident unfolded as the man collided with a trailer while driving his Toyota Prado in Kenya.
Despite the vehicular chaos, the driver emerged miraculously unscathed, his Toyota Prado bearing the scars of the collision.
“This is the driver who came from under the Prado without a scratch; that is when I knew that if God is with you, he is with you no matter the situation,” said @stanleyodom1.
The video quickly became a testament to the fragility of life and the mysterious forces that sometimes intervene in the face of peril.
The man's silent gratitude against the wall echoed the profound reality that, in the midst of chaos, divine protection can defy the odds and leave a soul untouched by the hands of danger.
