LOWELL, Mass. (WHDH) -- A frightening accident was caught on camera when a Massachusetts skateboarder, performing a stunt, was hit by a truck.

He flew 35 feet and he wasn't wearing a helmet but astonishingly he survived the accident, with no broken bones or serious injuries.

"I had some cuts on my back and my hip was just really swollen and bruised," said in an interview on the Today Show.

 The accident happened in the bay state as the skateboarder was riding down a rail in Lowell.
