Man narrowly escapes death after steel factory vat carrying molten metal spills over entire floor

A man was lucky to escape with his life after a huge vat of molten metal crashed down onto a factory floor - spilling everywhere.



Incredible CCTV footage from inside the warehouse, believed to be in Iran, shows a man walking across the room as the hot metal is moved overhead.



But as the container, with the red hot liquid inside was about to tip into a different part of the plant, a huge bracket gave way.



The lava-like liquid gushed out of the container, landing all over the floor, just where the man had been walking seconds before.
