Luckiest dog in the world just keeps running after rally car jumps over it

A rally event in Bolivia almost turned deadly for one wandering pooch when onlookers could only gasp and close their eyes with the car drifting around the track. Fans were watching the second stage of El Rally Codasur when they spied the small dog wandering down the dirt road like it was nothing. In the distance an engine can be heard getting progressively louder. Fans tried their best to warn the driver, but to no avail. The dog was surely going to die in front of them.

BUT WAIT! It turns out that just as the dog was heading down the straight, it happened to run over an embankment. That doesn’t mean much — unless a rally car is barreling down on you.

This pooch is the luckiest dog in the world.
