Two adults and a child have been killed after a monster truck with tractor-sized wheels ploughed into the crowd at a Dutch car show.
At least 15 people have also been injured in the disaster in the eastern city of Haaksbergen, with five seriously hurt.
Footage of the incident shows a monster truck driving over five parked cars as part of a demonstration, before veering into the watching crowd.
Spectators screamed and gasped in horror as the giant vehicle knocked down a guardrail before careering into dozens of onlookers.
Clips of the accident posted on YouTube showed the truck swerving towards the crowd who had been watching behind a metal gate. Families with children and push chairs can be seen running to safety.
One man drops his phone and yells in shock as the truck heads towards near where he is standing.
The mayor of Haaksbergen, Hans Gerritsen, told Dutch broadcaster NOS that three people were killed and 15 to 30 more injured.
