Shaken John Barrowman was caught up in the horrifying car crash in Berlin where he saw ‘bodies all over the place’
The former Dancing On Ice judge was just metres away from the carnage as he shared video form the scene in Rankestrasse in Charlottenburg. He told his Twitter followers he heard a huge noise and saw a car careering down the road, running someone over before returning down the same road.
It’s believed at least 30 people are thought to be injured at the scene in Rankestrasse in Charlottenburg, Berlin, Germany.
John took to Twitter on Wednesday morning to share a series of updates with his fans and reassure his followers he is okay.
“We think we have witnessed a terrorist attack here in Berlin we’re not sure there’s a lot of people dead bodies all over the place we’ve seen a car that came down the road and ended up in a storefront covering three city blocks it’s pretty horrific,” the actor wrote in the first of a series of tweets.

He then went on to share video of himself talking from the scene, captioning it: “Update from the horrible situation in Berlin…We are ok. Jb.”
In the footage, John explains: “So my friend Mikey Kay told us to sit by a tree just in case anything else happens because it’s something that’s between us and any other vehicles that might come.
“It’s really pretty bad guys, there’s… over where we are here there’s a lot of police, there’s a dead body in the middle of the road then over here there is all the emergency services that are trying to help victims and people.

“There’s a lot of people walking with limps and injuries. If I’m pointing to you from the road, up there the car came down onto the pavement… we had dinner in that restaurant last night,” he said, pointing out the scene around him.”
The former Doctor Who actor went on to explain how he believes the crash came about, telling his Twitter followers: “The car came down onto the pavement, then it’s come down onto the road over there, has hit somebody, then has gone down the road and come back onto the pavement down that way.
“It came back onto the pavement and [went] through a bunch of people, gone through… the photograph I posted of a cafe, and right into a storefront window.”

John added: “The police presence is unbelievable, they are clearing out the area, it was cordoned off. I heard the bang and the crash when we were in a store, and we just came out and saw the carnage.
“There’s helicopters coming in now to airlift people, so I’m going to let you see this then I’ll get back to you.”
Another piece of footage shared by John shows a helicopter landing in the city to help those injured.
John continued to document his experiences as he walked back to the hotel.
“We are making our way back to the hotel, we’ve both spoken to our parents to let them know we’re okay, but we’re going back to the hotel as we kind of don’t want to be on the street,” he told the camera in the video shared with his fans.
