It was 5:28 in the morning, and he was walking down Coney Island Avenue, probably heading off to work.
The surveillance video show one plow go by, and then comes a second.
The power of the spray is so great it knocks the man off his feet, and it was so great it shattered the window of the car dealership.
That man has now come forward in a video posted by JM Legend Auto Group. He is identified only as Pedro.
Below is a transcript of the interview:
