This is the desperate moment a man jumps off the top of a four-floor building to escape a fiery inferno that blocked the way out and left him trapped.
The massive fire broke out on the fourth floor of a building in Bengaluru, India, on the afternoon of 18th October.
It first erupted at a pub named Mudpipe, which is located on the top of the building, with initial reports stating it was likely due to a gas explosion.
Horrific footage shows the building being engulfed by flames that trapped one man at the top.
Desperate to save himself, he can then be seen eventually jumping off the building in a bid to escape an agonising death.
Witnesses said he miraculously survived the leap and has been taken to hospital.
So far, his identity and condition remain unclear.
Another video seems to show the fire slowly travelling downwards and reaching the lower floors of the building while bystanders look on in shock from outside.
The fire reportedly spread to a neighbouring building, which caused concerns among local residents about their safety.
No casualties have been reported.
Firefighters rushed to the spot and managed to get the blaze under control, local media reported.
The exact cause of the fire is yet to be determined.
