Tiles stuck a man's back after falling off the external wall of his house in southern China.

CCTV footage filmed in the city of Lufeng in Guangdong Province on November 5 shows a man named Chen walking out of his house and sitting in front of it to wash clothes.

However, the tiles suddenly fell off his house onto his back.

Chen's back was hurt and he drove to hospital for a check-up later.

Fortunately, Chen's parents walked away when the incident happened and Chen's head was not injured.

Chen said the house has been built for 10 years. The incident may have been caused by weathering as sun exposure and typhoon Nalgae affected his place.

Chen has already hired workers to shovel away all the remaining tiles on that day.

Chen had a CT scan in hospital which confirmed that his body was not injured seriously. Chen is resting at home at the moment.

11月5日，广东陆丰，陈先生刚坐到屋檐下洗东西，四秒后一层屋檐外墙的水泥和瓷砖突然整片的掉落，重重砸到了陈先生的后背上，陈先生立刻站起离开，由于冲击力太大，陈先生衣服也被砸破，顿时觉得后背疼痛难忍。稍作缓和后，陈先生自己驾车前往医院检查。
陈先生介绍，当时把自己吓坏了，所幸的是没砸到头部，并且家里的两位老人也刚好从屋檐下走开，出事当天就找人把剩余的瓷砖全部铲掉了。房子盖好有十年了，出事前几天刚好刮过（尼格）台风，加上太阳暴晒，瓷砖掉落可能和风化有关。出事后他的后背被刮伤，去医院拍了（CT）片子，医生说看不出身体内部有问。目前他正在家里休养中。
