Passengers ran out of their car and into the pouring rain to help drag a fallen tree off the road.

The group of men removed their shirts and dashed into the storm with only shorts as they worked to clear the way in Nakhon Nayok, Thailand.

Footage shows the travellers dragging a large branch to the side amid bad weather on April 26. They were band members on their way to their next performance.

When they managed to remove the obstruction, they rushed back inside the vehicle, soaked and cold.

Their friend Kantharakon Charoenphiw said: 'The Lucky Variety band was on the way to a concert in Nakhon Nayok province, passing through Khao Yai

'It was raining heavily, and tree branches were falling all the way. So we helped each other remove them.'

Summer storms in Thailand usually happen between March and May, during the country's hot season and before the full rainy monsoon sets in which starts around mid-May to June.
