A group of kind-hearted individuals united to rescue a driver from a car engulfed in flames, just in the nick of time. This heart-stopping rescue was captured on video, showcasing the heroic efforts of these individuals.
The dash cam recorded the intense moment when the driver swerved off the highway in St. Paul, Minnesota and collided with a light pole. As the flames quickly spread, a group of bystanders immediately jumped into action, desperately attempting to rescue the trapped driver.
Six individuals attempted to pry open the car doors while they were trapped against a guardrail, allowing the driver to exit.
The flames grew higher and higher, causing the entire car to rock violently. Unfortunately, the doors were not wide enough for the driver to escape.
Kadir Tolla, the individual who captured the scene on his dash cam, took immediate action. He quickly picked up a piece of discarded plastic from the highway and attempted to use it to break the window. However, despite his efforts, the window remained intact.
In a nail-biting moment, as the clock ticked away and the hood of the car sputtered with small explosions, a highway worker swiftly arrived at the scene. With quick thinking and determination, they shattered the driver’s window, enabling them to rescue the driver from imminent danger.
Tolla shared with FOX Minneapolis that the incident was one of the most terrifying moments he has ever experienced. However, he decided to provide assistance because he recognized that it could have easily been him in that predicament. Furthermore, he hoped that if he were ever in need, strangers would extend a helping hand.
After the harrowing incident, the driver was swiftly transported to Regions Hospital by paramedics for a thorough medical assessment. Miraculously, he emerged from the ordeal without any major injuries.
