Chinese optical illusion car crash leaves viewers baffled (VIDEO)

Viewers have been left confused by a video from China showing a car crash where two minibuses are left standing on just two wheels in what appears to be a synchronized special effects stunt - except it's for real.

Although it’s still unclear what exactly happens to the vehicles in the video, internet users have agreed on the theory that a wire on the road was to blame.

Chinese car crashes are a popular online genre, with quite a few chilling compilations out there. This video isn't the first time inexplicable content has come from the country - earlier this year the internet went wild over a video of a woman jumping out of the window of a moving bus.
