This is the heartwarming moment locals in Manila scramble to grab bottles of beer that have fallen from a lorry to help a accident-prone lorry driver.
Incredible footage shows dozens of people running to pick up bottles of beer which came crashing down on the streets of the Philippine capital on Wednesday.
A clip taken in the Santa Cruz area of the city shows a group of residents run toward green crates and smashed beer bottles in an attempt to salvage as many as possible.
The truck's back door flung open as it sped through a narrow road with sharp bends, causing cases of beer cascaded onto the road.
While hundreds were smashed, many stayed in tact, with locals doing their best to grab a cold one.
