XIANNING, China, June 17 (UPI) -- A brave driver in China was filmed crossing a large hole in a collapsed road using a "chopstick bridge" made from two fallen trees.

The video, filmed earlier this month, shows the SUV being carefully driven on the two tree trunks suspended over the collapsed road in Xianning, Hubei Province.

The vehicle slowly moves across the trees, which bend under the weight but hold the SUV until it reaches the other side.

The road reportedly collapsed as a result of a recent rainstorm.
