THIS is the terrifying moment a rally car was sent flying over a cliff after smashing into a wall.
But both drivers Adrien Fourmaux and Alexandre Coria somehow walked away from the shunt unscathed.
The scary incident happened at the World Rally Championship in Monte Carlo on Friday morning.
M-Sport Ford Puma driver Fourmaux came storming round a left-handed bend but seemed to misjudge the turning.
His car then smashed into the rock face and was sent on multiple flips over the barriers.
It eventually came to a stop after it fell off a cliff and landed around 30 metres below.
And footage has emerged on social media showing the horrifying incident which fortunately resulted in no casualties.
But team principal Richard Millener conceded that Fourmaux's participation in the four-day event is likely over.

Millener said: "He has had a very heavy accident by the looks of things.
"From what I can see it looks like quite a dirty corner he has gone to cut the line and I guess the cars in front have pulled a bit of mud out, and he just went head on into a mountain, and it has just flipped him over the barrier and 20 to 30 meters down the bank.
"The car looks fairly heavily damaged so I suspect that will be the end of the rally for this one which is a real shame.
"It is not what we wanted as we talked about making sure we get to the end, and it is difficult when they feel like they have good confidence and his comments last night about the car last night were very positive and he took that into today.
"It is another hard lesson in the development cycle, there is not much we can do."
