Watch the most amazing escape ever! “Superhuman” child is run over and jumps straight back up

In an amazing moment that looked like it could have been straight out of the film Unbreakable, a five-year-old boy gets up and rushes towards his injured grandmother after an out-of-control car ran over his head and body in Brazil.

Onlookers feared both were dead after the vehicle smashed into them and crushed Joao Pedro Nascimento under its wheels.

But the youngster picked himself up with just a few cuts and bruises on his face – and ran to aid grandmother Vilma, 56, as they waited for an ambulance to arrive.

They were walking home from Joao’s school in Anapolis near Goiaina, central Brazil, when they were hit.

A Chevrolet struck by a speeding Honda on an unmarked crossroads smashed into a parked VW Golf which then careered into them at speed.

Both wheels run over Joao’s head – but he was released the same day from hospital after tests.

His grandmother was allowed home the day after Tuesday’s horror smash, filmed on a camera overlooking the street.

Vilma, who suffered light wounds to her legs and feet, said: “I feel as if we’ve been born again. It’s a miracle we’re still alive.

“Joao doesn’t even look as if he’s been run over.

“I saw how the car crushed him and he ran towards me but when I saw blood coming out of his nose and mouth I feared the worst.

“I only calmed down when they said in hospital his injuries were superficial.

“I was terrified about the idea of something bad happening to my grandson while I was in charge of him.

“The hand of God helped us and thankfully we’re okay.”
