In Logan, Utah a handful of bystanders teamed up to lift a burning car and rescue a man from underneath it. A BMW hit a motorcycle trapping the biker underneath the car and causing the bike to burst into flames. One of the citizens called 911 and Sargent Jason Olsen was the first officer on the scene. In the video you see a young woman checking on the man, 21 year old Brandon Wright, under the car. Once they realize he is still breathing they proceed to form a large group and lift the car off of the man and drag him out. You then see Sgt. Olsen tell everyone to back away from the man and the fire, then the paramedics tend to the wounded man who eventually responds.
Watching this video and reading about these random people saving a man trapped in a life or death situation brought tears to my eyes and warmed my heart. It is awesome to know that people do care about others without even having to know them. It was just human nature kicking in I am sure, but it is still an amazing thing. In the article the people said they weren't even thinking about their own safety, they never thought about an explosion occurring while rescuing this man, they just knew they had to help this young man and give him a second chance at life. If these people had not been where they were when they were this man probably would have died. I cannot even begin to imagine how fretful this man and his family are. I hope this brings more people to realize that they can and should help others in their time of need. I believe in karma and these brave people will be rewarded in their futures. I also believe that everything happens for a reason, and that car did not blow up because these people and that man were meant to have a second chance. God bless these people and may the whole world know how heroic they were on this day.
