THIS is the moment a car hurtles off the road and crashes 40ft below in an epic smash that looks like something straight out of a Hollywood movie.
The accident was filmed by multiple CCTV cameras and left the neighbours in the residential street shocked.

The video shows a white sedan barrelling through a guard rail on a dead-end street in San Francisco’s Dolores Heights.
The white car flew down an embankment, knocked down a tree, and landed upside down.
Fortunately, no one was hurt in the crash, according to the San Francisco Fire Department.
David Lieb, who lives in Dolores Heights, said he was startled by the sound of the car flying down the embankment.
He told SFGATE: “I was reading bedtime stories to my 3-year-old, and we heard a big crash, and I went outside to investigate.
“I didn’t see something at first, and then I saw other neighbours converging down the steps.”
The accident took place less than a minute after three women passed through the spot where the car landed, NBC reports.
David added: “What’s scary is, my family goes up and down these steps all the time.
“My daughter and I have a passion project to try to plant the succulents in the planters here, and we could have easily been standing there at that moment.”
Some neighbours believe that the car may have been stolen.
However, cops have not confirmed anything yet – and are currently investigating the crash.
The video uploaded to @Juliabrownsf has gone viral on Youtube with more than 60,000 views – and people were quick to comment.
One said: “Wow. The driver and passengers seem to have not wanted to wait around for the police.”
Another said: “That’s the quickest response from the firefighters I’ve ever seen.”
A third pointed out: “Oh man, just a minute earlier, people were walking down the stairs and on the sidewalk there.”
This comes after a little girl and her family were counting their blessings after she narrowly escaped death in a shocking video.
