A sleeping man is lucky to be alive after a car ploughed through his bedroom wall in Christchurch overnight.
The car crashed into Amrit Singh's room in the suburb of Richmond at 4am on Thursday, after speeding through an intersection.
Singh said he thought a bomb had gone off.
"I thought, like, it's an earthquake because everything just dropped on me - and I wake up and I look, and there is a car in the room," he told Newshub.
"I'm totally shocked, like, what's the car doing in my room?"
St John said the driver was taken to Christchurch Hospital with serious injuries.
