A SUV rolled backwards into the water while trying to put a boat out to water, narrowly missing the driver who jumped off the attached boat at Rocky Point dock in Canada.

The man jumped on the boat to fix the propeller, and the momentum from the jump caused the vehicle to roll backwards when the video was filmed on May 15.

According to the filmer, the car caught fire once it was dragged out of the water due to it being an electric car.
