The people saying that this was planned are completely wrong. I'm related to the man who saved the guy in the car...it was not at all planned. They were cut completely off guard while filming the storm. Can't he get the credit he rightfully deserves for saving a life??

Well what is the guys name that saved his life. Why don't you give him credit and write it here. I will add it to the description.

I'm amazed at how long he took to get out of the fucking car...

# 1, Does cursing provide more credibility towards your opinion?

# 2 The driver admitted hes was stupid - he's right

# 3 Sort of sounds like the sort of thing you would do
