A car carrying three Freon cylinders exploded when driving along a road in eastern China.

The dramatic video, shot in the city of Jiaxing in Zhejiang Province on August 17, shows a front windscreen flying out and doors being blown open after a ball of fire suddenly burst out of an SUV moving on a road.

According to reports, the motorist named Li carried three cylinders in his car while on his way to fix air-conditioners for customers when the explosion happened.

Fortunately, Li was not injured and nearby people extinguished the fire.

Li said the valve on the cylinder may not have be tightened up, causing the gas leaked out. The case is in further investigation.
