A biker was forced to hold on to a lorry for 19 miles after a motorbike crash in which his wife died.
Anderson Antonio Pereira’s bike was rammed by a lorry and became jammed under the front of the vehicle in Penha, southern Brazil, on Sunday.
His wife Sandra, 47, was left unconscious in the road, but Anderson, 49, managed to cling to the door.
He begged the 36-year-old driver to stop moving, but he carried on for another 19 miles.
A video recorded by eyewitnesses shows Anderson swinging from the left-hand door of the lorry, with his bike squashed under the front of the HGV and scraping along the road.

Eventually other motorists came to his aid and managed to get the lorry to stop. The driver was then dragged out of his seat into the road and beaten up before he was arrested.
Mr and Ms Pereira had bought the motorcycle only two months before the crash.
Mr Pereira is expected to make a full recovery, but his wife was flown by helicopter to hospital and later died of head injuries.
She leaves behind a 26-year-old son.
The driver is expected to be charged after he was suspected to be under the influence of drugs.
