Man miraculously walks away after driving truck over cliff into Niagara Falls Gorge

A man miraculously survived after he drove his truck over a cliff and into Niagara Falls Gorge in New York on Wednesday.

New York State Park Police said the 42-year-old man was able to get out of the badly damaged truck and walk out of the gorge on his own.

Just before 6:30 p.m., the incident occurred near Depot Avenue and the Whirlpool Bridge, where the man, identified as being from the Niagara Falls area by the police, was discovered outside the Aquarium of Niagara.

It’s unclear what caused the man to drive his 2008 Toyota Tundra through a fence and into the gorge.

Police said the man was taken to an area hospital by ambulance where he was treated for non-life-threatening injuries. 

An ongoing investigation has been initiated by authorities, who are receiving support from the New York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation and the Niagara County District Attorney’s Office.

The New York State Parks officials are in the process of figuring out the safest method to extract the truck from the gorge. At this time, there is no set timeline for the recovery operation.
