China: Car Plunges off Hilltop Into Trees in Guangdong, Shocking Onlookers

This is the shocking moment that a car in China suddenly plunged from a hilltop and crashed into dense trees below, leaving witnesses stunned by the dramatic fall. On March 12, 2026, in Zhongshan, Guangdong, the video captured a car tumbling down from the top of a hill. The vehicle appeared to lose control before dropping off the elevated slope, falling rapidly through the air and landing heavily in a cluster of trees beneath. The impact looked severe as branches shook and debris scattered upon contact. Onlookers who recorded the scene reacted with surprise as the car disappeared into the foliage after the fall. The video ended with the car resting amid the trees while witnesses continued to observe from a distance.

5.7-Magnitude Earthquake Kills 8 in Bangladesh

Health workers treat an injured 12-year-old boy at Dhaka Medical College Hospital after the earthquake, in Dhaka, Bangladesh, on 21 November 2025. Despite urgent efforts to save him, doctors later declared the child dead. A powerful earthquake measuring between 5.5 and 5.7 struck Dhaka late Friday morning, sending panic across the city as buildings shook and residents rushed into the streets. According to the Bangladesh Meteorological Department, the shallow quake—with an epicenter in Madhabdi, Narsingdi—caused significant jolts in the capital and surrounding districts. Emergency services reported several structural damages, including a collapsed rooftop railing in Armanitola and a tilted eight-story building in Swamibagh. International reports indicate that at least six people have died and dozens were injured as falling debris and damaged structures triggered chaos. Tremors were felt across central Bangladesh and parts of eastern India, including Kolkata. Dhaka, Bangladesh on November 21, 2025. Photo by Suv
