An amusing video has emerged of a drone crashing through trees while the operator was attempting to film a beautiful sunset.

The footage, captured during a flight over the ocean in Newport Beach, CA, US late last month, ends with a surprise crash landing.

“The sunset was glorious and the waves were spectacular as I flew my drone around this arch rock when suddenly it crashed into a tree and was left hanging off a 30-foot cliff,” the filmer later wrote online.

“I quickly ran down the rocky beach towards where it had disappeared. I couldn't see it, but I was able to climb up the cliff and out on some tree branches and eventually found it. The drone was undamaged, and I carefully climbed all the way down again carrying it back to safety.”
