Skater gets hit by car

A dramatic video has emerged of a young man getting hit by a car after performing a skateboard trick.

The footage, shot on Monday in Gainesville, FL, US, shows young skater Billy landing a perfect varial flip on a rainy road but then getting hit at speed by a car.

Billy rolls onto the car's bonnet and comes crashing down onto the road.

Fortunately he gets up straight away with only a few bruises and scraped elbows.
