This is the dramatic moment a small car was seen moving through floodwaters during a short but intense rainstorm, appearing almost like a makeshift boat. On June 9, 2025, in Dalian, Liaoning Province, video footage captured torrential rain battering the streets and causing significant flooding. The car was seen navigating or drifting through a strong current, bobbing in the rising water as shocked onlookers looked on.
