A delivery man narrowly avoided being hit by a solar water heater that fell off a building in central China.

CCTV footage filmed in the city of Zhengzhou in Henan Province on February 1 shows the water heater falling from the seventh floor of a building just seconds after an electric three-wheeler drove past.

According to reports, the solar water heater with water inside and the steel frame attached to it weighed around 50kg.

Fortunately, no one was injured.

After the incident, people went to check on the seventh floor and found that there were several other solar hot water heaters, which appeared to be abandoned and not properly installed, posing a significant safety risk.

2月1日，河南郑州。快递小哥骑着三轮车从一辆轿车旁经过，才1秒中刚过，上百斤的太阳能从7楼坠落，小哥险些被砸。知情者崔先生称，当时再晚一会，快递车可能就会被砸扁。太阳能加上钢架还有里面的水有上百斤左右，有碎片还砸穿了旁边的轿车引擎盖，万幸没人受伤。事后人员上去查看时发现七楼还有好几个太阳能热水器，疑似废弃没有固定安装好，存在很大的安全隐患。
