This is the hilarious moment a pedestrian attempted to jump on a passing car to fake an 'accident' scene.

Hong Jianhao witnessed the comical 'road accident' when he saw a man leaping onto his vehicle to pretend he was hit on a busy road in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, on May 14.

Daschcam footage shows the individual standing in the middle of the road, waiting for cars to approach.

When Hong saw the man, he immediately hit the brakes. However, the man dashed towards him to make it look like he was rammed.

The driver quickly reversed the car, but the man chased after him.

When Hong stopped, the man climbed and sat on the windscreen.

Out of desperation, some people fake road accidents to extort money from their victims.

Fortunately, the entire act was recorded on the dashcam, proving the driver's innocence.
