Two people died instantly in the horror collision, while two others gruesomely burned to death in the ensuing petrol blaze.

A dashcam belonging to one of the drivers captures a speeding car, believed to be a Renault Sandero, hurtling along in the wrong lane.

Both drivers then attempt to swerve out of the way but end up colliding head-on.

The tragedy happened in the Volgograd Oblast region of south-western Russia on the road between the towns of Uren, Sharya, and Nikolsk.

The car filming the incident, which is thought to be a Toyota Camry, was found flipped onto its roof.

A fire started by the other car killed its driver and another passenger.

Miraculously, a 10-year-old girl was rescued from the blaze as well as a 37-year-old passenger.

They are both being treated for concussion and several fractured bones.

Local reports say that the filming car was being driven by a 23-year-old who was among the four that died.

Police are investigating the exact cause of the collision.
