The unnamed motorist was driving his Skoda Octavia at high speeds through villages in Saxony, eastern Germany, when he lost control at a bend.
A police officer watched in horror as the vehicle crashed through a railing and careered up an embankment in the town of Limbach-Oberfrohna.
The car then sailed 100ft through the air and smashed through a church roof.
Firefighters removed the driver from the wreckage, and he was taken to hospital with serious injuries. They later used a crane to remove the car from the church roof.
Police said the driver was breathalysed but have yet to release his name. The 10,000 euro Skoda was written off in the incident, and the cost of repairing the church roof is not yet known.
