The heart-stopping incident happened at the Chumoukedima district between Kohima and Dimapur in Nagaland state. It was captured on camera on a car’s dashboard on July 3.
The five-second viral video showed a falling boulder crushing a black SUV on impact. All four passengers, three women and a man, stepped out of the vehicle that “did not budge much”.
The folks in the Harrier were lucky. 2ft behind & it’d have meant certain death.
This is excellent build quality from @TataMotors – the suspension & frame strength meant the vehicle did not budge much despite the extreme intensity of the impact. Quality saves lives; pay for it. pic.twitter.com/b62SqR6S7h
