CCTV footage captured the dramatic moment a motorcycle burst into flames while filling up with petrol in Chirawa, Rajasthan.

Footage from July 24 shows the incident unfold as the rider and his pillion passenger sit on the bike while one attendant fills up the vehicle with fuel.

Out of nowhere, flames erupt around the fuel tank and quickly engulf the bike and the rider, passenger and attendant run for safety as other onlookers leave the scene.

Subsequently, another attendant arrives with a fire extinguisher and houses the flames in foam.

Local reports suggest nobody was seriously injured.
