Call it horrifying bizarre or what you will.

A Rolls-Royce Phantom car got dragged into a 6-foot-deep sinkhole bang in the middle of a road in China.

It happened in Harbin, the capital city of China's northeastern Heilongjiang province on October 1, according to Channel News Asia.

"I was waiting at the traffic light and was just about to start the car as the light changed to green, when the road suddenly caved in," the owner of the car said.

Fortunately, the man managed to open the driver's side window and escape out of it. The Rolls-Royce -- worth about 5 million yuan (Dh2.8million) -- was damaged.

The car was lifted out with the help of the local authorities. But, it's a complete write-off!
