A man transporting steel bars was crushed under them as the supports on his vehicle collapsed, only to be rescued moments later by passersby, according to Chinese new outlet Guangdong Econ-Science Channel.

The man suffered fractures to his spine. After the steel bars were lifted off of the man, he was conscious, but unable to move.
