Falling Boom Barrier Knocks Scooter Rider Out Cold

This is the moment a scooter rider tries to follow a car through a boom gate but the falling barrier smacks him square in the face and knocks him out cold.

The footage taken in an as yet unidentified Chinese city on 24th October shows the opportunist scooter owner without a helmet riding behind the saloon car.

As the vehicle passes successfully through the raised boom barrier into a gated community, the scooterist follows close behind and tries to go past without waiting.
