Sam Peters, who was having a day out at the seaside, captured the bizarre footage.
Several cars can be seen stuck in the sand as the waves crashed into their tyres.
According to the 34-year-old, beachgoers were left ‘panicking’ by the situation.
The owner of a 2010 Subaru Outback came back to find their motor sinking into the sand and sea.
Plenty of the public came to the driver’s aid to help push the vehicle to safety.
The footage was captured in Polzeath, Cornwall yesterday (25 August).
“Everyone was panicking and it caused much distress,” Sam, from Worcester, told Need To Know.
“Many onlookers were surprised and concerned, some tried to help.
“Several cars got caught in the rising tide and became stuck on the beach.
“The car finally got pushed out by many supporters on the beach.”
