A wall of water burst through glass doors in the lobby of an up-market Hong Kong hotel, washing away guests and staff, as the “King of Storms” battered the city.

Super Typhoon Ragasa has cut a deadly path through the region with at least 14 people killed in Taiwan and more than 100 injured across the disputed island nation and Hong Kong.

Dramatic footage has emerged of the moment murky water crashed against the closed glass doors of the Fullerton Ocean Park Hotel in Hong Kong’s Aberdeen district.

The powerful seawater rush shattered the glass before sweeping through the building as hotel staff and guests clung to the walls for safety.

A man who had been holding onto a panda-themed cardboard display was pushed off his feet before a fellow guest rushed to help him stand. 6
