Shocking footage captured the horrifying moment a manhole explosion nearly hit a grandmother and her two grandkids in Poughkeepsie.

Lisa Davis and her grandkids were walking home from an Easter egg hunt on Sunday when the manhole exploded mere seconds after they walked by, sending debris and pieces of concrete flying through the air.

“I was like, ‘Oh my God,’; I didn’t know where to go,” Davis told ABC 7 of coming “one foot [from] losing my family.”

Davis and her 6-year-old grandson can be seen running as she pushes her younger grandchild in a stroller, with the explosion barely missing them.

“I didn’t know what to do except grab my grandson and run,” she said.

“I couldn’t really run straight ahead of me to the corner because the manhole at the next corner blew up too,” she said.

When firefighters arrived, they found high levels of gas in the craters left in the pavement.

Three manholes in total exploded in a chain reaction.

Davis said it wasn’t until she saw the footage that she realized just how close her family was to danger.

“A foot, one foot [from] losing my family,” she said.

While the grandmother said she was still hesitant to walk on sidewalks, her grandson said he isn’t that worried.

“I’m kind of scared, but I wasn’t that scared,” he told the station.
