This is the shocking moment bikers crashed into spectators during a stunt show in China.

The duo, performing on a motorcycle, slammed into a crowd of families while attempting a wheelie at Chimelong Spaceship Park in Hengqin.

Footage shows one of the performers balancing atop the handlebars while his partner stands on the seat during the stunt on April 22.

Spectators, including young children, are seen standing behind a rope barricade, watching the performance.

Moments later, the motorcycle veers out of control and crashes through the barrier, knocking several onlookers to the ground.

One parent crouches and hugs a child in yellow clothing, who is then violently struck by the vehicle's front wheel as the crowd gasps in horror.

The child was reportedly unharmed in the incident.

Staff offered to take the child to the hospital for a check-up, but the parents declined.

A theme park spokesperson said: 'As an apology, we also gave the child some gifts.'

They added: 'It was a performer's error. The motorcycle knocked over a child in the front row. The show has been suspended for internal review.'
