Deadly 200-car pileup on foggy Chinese bridge caught on video

A massive pileup crash involving more than 200 vehicles has been captured on video in China, closing off a bridge in the city of Zhengzhou.

A massive pile-up involving more than 200 vehicles was captured on video in China. 

The huge wreck unfolded Wednesday on the Zhengxin Huanghe Bridge in Zhengzhou as a heavy fog set in over the area, according to Reuters. 

The footage begins with a box truck slamming into the back of another vehicle, pushing damaged cars around as sirens could be heard wailing in the background. 

"This is too scary. Full of people here, I don't think we can get off the bridge," Reuters quoted a bystander as saying in one clip.
