A Southern California man who lost control of his car while driving ended up on the roof of his next door neighbor's house.

Galina Wynn and her husband were in the Cadillac when it went airborne and landed on top of the home.

She says they came down the hill and couldn't stop as they turned the corner.

When she opened the door, Galina said she saw the edge of the roof. The car came to rest on the edge of a retaining wall. Firefighters got a ladder to get the couple down from the roof.

There was someone in the house where the car landed but he wasn't hurt.
