The meaning of two proxy_pass directives

Server NGINX
1

I saw some nginx configs written like this:

location ~ {
…
proxy_pass http://upstream1;
proxy_pass http://upstream2;
…
}

What this config meaning? proxy_pass to upstream2 if proxy_pass to
upstream fails?

Thanks.

proxy_pass to upstream2 if proxy_pass to upstream1 fails?

This is a wrong configuration, as well as

 location ... {
      proxy_pass    ...
      fastcgi_pass  ...
 }

nginx currently does not report this is as error.

so what will happen if config like this? Only the 2nd proxy_pass takes
effect?
