Spent 31 years as a FF/medic and flight nurse. That is a tough scene in so many ways. Incredible that they got there at the time they did as that SUV is pretty burnt up and his cloths are still intact. He would have burnt to death within minutes. For sure he suffered bad burns to the head/face, right arm/hand and side. He was pinned and not able to take full breaths combined with unhealthy dose of smoke inhalation hence the fast shallow breathing. I was thinking when the flames started up again in the trailer that it was time to go old school and grab a truck and pull the vehicle back. I didnt realize until other views just how entangled it was in the trailer and that wasnt going to work. Fire guys were one step ahead of me. I was then thinking cut that seat back and get him some room to breath and they did that as well. Really solid job by the guys on scene. Hats off.
Thank you for all your service by the way! You're an inspiration to me! And I was really wondering why they didn't have them on oxygen and didn't seem to have done much other as far as medical goes. But I did see a wrap around his arm so maybe they gave him some medication at least for pain or something??
Its burnt behind him, in front of him, and above him. This guy was saved literally seconds before he would've been horrifically injured or killed. Absolute miracle, and great save for FD.
@@morbidmanmusic ..better hope/Pray SOMEONE has ‘kind’ words FOR YOU IF/WHEN YOU need them! We ALL have ‘it’ coming. ‘Course I’m betting you’re a “tough” guy yeah?
@@morbidmanmusic Agreed, Miracles and God should not be used in this situation. There is another commentor below who thinks God was literally riding shotgun with this guy at 03:05 a.m. and miraculously prevented him from dying in the crash. Maybe a better miracle would have been preventing him from getting behind the wheel in the first place so he would not have crashed into a tractor-trailer.
This man is lucky to be alive. The SUV he was in looks all burnt around him. I hope he recovers from this quickly. And the fire people were amazing as usual.
Videos like this need to start being shown to people in driver's education classes! The videos & pictures should be shown in there entirety & with all graphic images shown without blurred lines!
@@oliverheidelberg. I disagree with you. I think intelligent and sensitive people will remember the images a drive more carefully. Some others though will still text, speed, drink, take drugs while driving and they are the ones who become potential killers. And the careful drivers will be their victims.
Mongo, I agree with you. After watching scenes of awful car crashes (especially the Russian ones), it teaches you to be really aware of the mistakes other car drivers can make...especially cars that shoot out from side streets...that one stops being complacent and becomes extra alert for other people's mistakes while also controlling one's own driving. At least that is valid for me.
Well, a German paramedic here. We usually put the victim asleep and monitor his vital functions, before he will be cut free. Causing a retrograde amnesia also.
Now this video was more graphic than a lot of them that you say are graphic. That guy was in bad Shape. You rescue workers Had a hard job I'm getting him out. I'm sure hes family appreciates all your efforts. You guys take Care, And I'm sending my prayers to all of you.
Disagree. One example, of many,, a car was lifted because it was on its side and the deceased person fell out the door. Nobody knew that was going to happen. That will live in my head for ever
Think' yes it is a shocked therapy video... Unlike this pre rescue video m.ua-cam.com/video/5TSlmw3A-IU/v-deo.html even the accident looks horrible along the graphic but the victims position looks wierd, soon people would know this just a pre rescue even without read the title... About the graphic sometimes it does have to be revealed into public as 'warning so they can take care to drive safely.
@@t3true-games Yea, i remember that one and you're right, that stays in your memory unfortunately. That was the most graphic one, that i remember. Poor old lady was on her way to dialysis. 😢
@@GrandTime-17 yea there are others but that one I can't forget. And another was the wrong way crash in San Diego with cops that were off duty. He first showed them in there then he cut the clip probably after complains. That was rough. But it is what it is. It helps me to slow down and pay attention out there
Wow. You can see how burned out the vehicle is all around him. Its a miracle that if that man did survive. I couldnt find anything in the media. I truly hope he will be ok.
A few more inches, and the driver would have been decapitated. The firemen did an amazing job extricating the driver from a tight, almost unsurvivable, crumpled zone. It’s heartbreaking to see someone in irretractable pain, howeve,r thankfully, he’s alive due to the bravery and dedication of the rescuers on scene.
As someone who spent over thirty years as a first responder in many different environments, I was formally diagnosed with PTSD about six years ago. Although many different things can trigger different people, I personally found that this video modulated my symptoms and distress. I think its because of the professionalism, investment, and support of the responders that makes all the difference to every person on that scene.
You are a hero. I’ve seen those mock crashes . The more I think about it, these mock ctashes are not the answer. They need to see the reall deal. Being a first responder what’s your take. I think these kids need a harsh wake up call.
That is great news. As a person with no medical training, I felt a joy he was moving around. It isn't comparable to your experience, but seeing him fighting and possibly assisting in his own rescue by not passing out was a comfort. And to me it means he wants to live. Poor guy, hopefully he is in better condition now, all due to people like you caring so much.
@velvetbees You don't need medical training to be a good person, as I can clearly see you have figured out. I'm happy to see caring people like you and a few others in this comment section, expressing joy, because a man survived, what came so close to killing him.
Thank you all for your help and efforts in helping and saving this gentleman from a painful and agonizing death. May God bless you and be with you throughout your lifesaving journey and years.
wow, that was amazing to watch because normally you don't get that type of view of the injured getting cut out. ya'll got there quick to the scene too. there are some youtube channels that get there way after
I’m a truck driver and I’m always on guard. The things I see cars doing really makes me think ,is where you have to go that important? I learned when I new in my profession there is no such thing as accidents. They are all preventable. I hope that man survives and I hope whoever reads this really think’s about about it when they’re driving 80 in a 65 weaving thru traffic I see it everyday
Agreed. And as empathetic as everyone is toward the injured man in the video, let's not forget the impact that accident will have on the truck driver as well, both psychologically and professionally, even if he received no physical injuries.
Yep, my first thought...You must have done something really stupid to get in that position. Disctracted? Speeding? Drunk? No breaks? I feel sorry for the guy but my gut says what I see on the roads every day! Not every day that a large truck backs up into you at a high rate of speed!
I always say don't know how truck driver's drive in an insane world. There's too much disorderly driver's on the streets and freeway's, just yesterday 2 cars racing on freeway, unbelievable, starting to look like LA😐
When its not your time, Wow! Angelic protection was all around this man. I pray for a full recovery🙏🏾 . S/o as well to the fireman working endlessly to get him out.
In high school we had drivers education class the teacher would constantly remind us how important it is to respect the highway with lectures and videos and on-site vehicles that were in recent horrible accidents it really thought me a lot and I teach my son that will soon be driving
I can’t imagine being in pain while all the Best personnel is just right there and they are trying to get you. I hope you heal quickly and I’m sorry you had to go like that 🙏🏻🇺🇸
@@bennetts-revenge_2There is no way that you know he caused it. Like I said to the other idiot, find out the actually facts before saying something stupid.
@@devonweaver647 I didn't say 0 about him being wreckless, who do you think you are saying it was an idiotic comment. Your comment is idiotic. I was just saying be careful driving. Oh that's idiotic? Plz
It looks like most of his hair was burned off, as well as severe burns to his right arm and hand. You can see the skin peeling off when he gets loaded into the ambulance at 5:07. He will have a long and very painful recovery if he survives. My utmost respect for the first responders, it had to be an absolute nightmare to arrive to that scene, and I am sure a lot of first responders suffer from PTSD.
i did it for 7 years while in college--get used to it--saw over 300 dead--thing that always amazed me is the people did not realize they were living their last few hours,day...
Great footage video of this rescue and it shows what it is like when you fail to maintain control of your vehicle and run under a semi-trailer trucks rear. I hope he makes it with lesser injuries than it seems he will have. Super work by the first responders .
This would be a great psa. That was intense. If he was going just a little bit faster, this would have been a messy body recovery instead of a amazing rescue. Thank you to our firemen/firewomen and policemen/policewomen for all they do. ( And YES, I said police man/woman too!!)
@@luisesteban4775 I have live video of guy trying to disengage cab from semi trailer to loot more in NY & semi driver didnt know guy there, he got stuck under tires screaming & they said hwy shut down cuz body parts all over., karma busy
This man is bless to be alive hope he has a speedy recovery but on another serious note please people please respect these big trucks on the road beware of them ..don’t drive too close behind them ..pass them quickly if your passing stop pacing with them on the side of them there are many blind spots riding along the side of these semi tractor trailers ….and stop cutting them off when you switch lanes in front of them they don’t stop easily and stop listening to these accident lawyers filling your heads up with this big pay day if you have a accident with a semi ..the truth is you have a less likely chance of even living to even sue and get anything you go up against one these trucks you will stand a better chance of having a permanent sleep so just be safe and careful out there.
Amazing how in north America we can't be bothered to put better underride protection on the trailers.- Sure the iihs tests the new ones.... against a sedan, when many in us, ca, mx roll around in 6,000lb trucks. Prob. would save lives.
Seems like he’s awake, alert, and somewhat oriented. Last month I had one of these but with a teen halfway under a semi. Let’s just say we had to meet the coroner and the funeral director at the police impound lot to get the rest of the kiddo out then spray the car down w bleach and water so it didn’t start the decomp process with what was left of the poor kid. Sometimes this job hits a nerve that’s not easy to shake off, that’s for damn sure. 😞
@@splatts5768 it’s all part of EMS work and thank you so much. Going on 22 years now and the kids always break my heart. We have a CISD team on standby at all times if we need counseling so we do have resources to talk through the icky calls. ☺️
Good thing I’m not a first responder bc I wouldn’t risk my life for some drunk idiots mistakes. You can sit there and think about how you’re gonna get yourself out.
You just can't thank first Responder's enough! They are hero's, they do this every day for you and me. Thank you to all, for doing what you do. I hope the man makes it, physically and mentally.
Pretty fair assumption that alcohol or driver fatigue were factor(s) in this accident. But does G-d watch over people! And I kinda question the logic of FD that if a 10 to 15 ton fire engine cannot pull a vehicle out from under a tractor trailer, kinda guessing the 4 ton tow truck gonna be less successful. Dude is lucky to be alive for sure!
@@morbidmanmusic I’ve been burned 😑 not as bad as that ! There’s always hope and you don’t need to be negative. Me sending good vibes is my business and none of yours. Why does what a stranger writes for someone else bother you.🤷🏽♂️
That’s a nightmare! The engine is on his lap and awake for the whole show. He was breathing through the pain. I do that when I’m in a lot of kidney pain.
In the UK they give the patients pain medication almost immediately when they are in pain like that, usually morphine or ketamine if it’s really bad. Not sure why they don’t do that here 🤔
I would think they would give him some kind of pain, medication, or anti-anxiety medication or both while he’s in the car. It looks like they have an IV going and could do that. I understand that sometimes that can mask issues but I don’t think a little bit to take the edge off is going to make a difference. As far as the medical examination goes we could make a big difference for him.
I feel so bad for this poor man trapped in this vehicle. It must be terrifying seeing the flames and dealing with his pain. Why did the truck not have the "Mansfield bumper' that is suppose to stop a vehicle from going under the rear of the truck ??? This was mandatory to all semis and was famously named after Jane Mansfield was decapitated in a vehicle accident rear-ending a semi in june 29th 1967.
Great job to the hard work for the first responders. Just a couple of observations. The injured driver should have gotten an oxygen mask. When you pour water on the fire this white smoke is suffocating and clearly he was covered a few times with it. And the other one, I am not sure if the 2 trucks were pulling back the SUV with a chain, if they did, people stay away from the snapping point, if that chain brakes many know what can happen.
May god bless these man they really work hard to save lifes. Please God bless them and their families , they don't deserve to die, i pray they must live forever and save more lives . I love you dear brothers 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
That is a very confronting scene , a complex extrication with an active fire . I find it hard to believe that no breathing extension line was placed on the patient whilst still trapped .
That's a pretty bad one. Glad they got him out alive. I did a TC while I was with heavy rescue at SBCoFD. Two door coupe lost control & wrapped itself around a rural mail box with the I beam stuck in the ground with 4 male victims. Driver easily extradited, 1 DOA, two rear passengers were trapped. Took awhile to unwrap the car from them. One eventually died enroute. Next day, we learned that they were all related (brothers/cousins) and was coming back from a funeral. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. Now the surviving driver would no doubt harbor this for the rest of his life.
Emergency workers working at all hours, in all conditions, and have to deal with extremely challenging situations on a daily basis. They should get free beer and food wherever they go.
Un excelente trabajo de todos. Y cdo aprendan a conducir con cautela, con conciencia, con prolijidad, con conocimiento de normas de conducir dejarán de ocurrir estas graves situaciones.
Finally! Someone noticed that the patient wasn’t provided remedy to the toxic smoke and chemicals while they took so long to get him out. He was suffering not only the pain but he was struggling to breath too.
Everybody is afraid of snakes, but I don’t get it. The fear of getting trapped inside a burning car is way worse, just imagine you are driving with your loved ones but Then a semi truck crashes into you, flips your car upside down and your loved ones are dead. Not only did you just crash your car, your seatbelt gets jammed but, wait fire starts and you see the corpse of your loved ones burning and you have to smell the scent of your family’s flesh cooking. Now it’s up to you to get out of the car but you try as hard as you can to break out of the jammed seatbelt while the fire gets closer and closer to you, then you start screaming for mercy that you don’t burn alive and the car explodes before your flesh starts cooking
This is got to be one of the most difficult extractions I've ever seen for the fireman to get a person out of vehicle. The car and the truck are on fire all the time they're trying to get him out and car is wedged permanently under the truck. My God what a mess. I just wonder if he lived after all.
I'm absolutely thrilled this driver was saved. That said, I'm thoroughly disappointed that the video SKIPPED THE ENTIRE PROCESS! It showed him in what looked like a potentially hopeless predicament then, *POOF* he's on a gurney, on the way into an ambulance! I cannot be the only one who comes here for the PROCESS?? To see how they puzzle and prize the twisted metal away without further damage to the human??!! To pull the truck out from under, and roll the dash off the gentleman; maybe removing the roof, or not. Will they take him out the top, or the door? Which pillars will be cut and in what order? Will seats come out, doors come off? It's a fascinating PROCESS... and this video LEFT IT ALL OUT. sigh. Maybe next time.
Well, DAMN. There's a GREAT shot of him ALMOST OUT and *POOF* !! It's over. So much for THAT 5.5 minutes. Glad they got him out. I come here to WATCH THE PROCESS, *NOT* have it cut to done. sigh.
He’s lucky to be alive 👍

Spent 31 years as a FF/medic and flight nurse. That is a tough scene in so many ways. Incredible that they got there at the time they did as that SUV is pretty burnt up and his cloths are still intact. He would have burnt to death within minutes. For sure he suffered bad burns to the head/face, right arm/hand and side. He was pinned and not able to take full breaths combined with unhealthy dose of smoke inhalation hence the fast shallow breathing.

I didnt realize until other views just how entangled it was in the trailer and that wasnt going to work. Fire guys were one step ahead of me. I was then thinking cut that seat back and get him some room to breath and they did that as well. Really solid job by the guys on scene. Hats off.

Sometimes this job hits a nerve that’s not easy to shake off, that’s for damn sure. 😞
I am so sorry that you had to experience that. Thank you for doing it. 🙏🏼
@@splatts5768 it’s all part of EMS work and thank you so much. Going on 22 years now and the kids always break my heart. We have a CISD team on standby at all times if we need counseling so we do have resources to talk through the icky calls. ☺️
Good thing I’m not a first responder bc I wouldn’t risk my life for some drunk idiots mistakes. You can sit there and think about how you’re gonna get yourself out.
And pay your way out of it for sure. So many resources spent on getting stupid drunks out of death.
Dang! How fast was that guy going? 3:05 am, conveniently right after the bars close? He's lucky we still (SO FAR) have emergency services.
♥️♥️ so much respect and gratitude to First Responders/firefighters/medic and police officers 🙏🏽
GOD BLESS THEM FIRE FIGHTERS
No
I hope the driver that got a second shot at life learns how precious life is and every day is a blessing!!
yah dont drink and drive
maybe he already knew that?
Because he didn't realize that beforehand, or you haven't been able to teach him that fact yet?
@@dethray1000he did not drink and drive he was coming from work he was very sleepy at 3:05Am
You just can't thank first Responder's enough! They are hero's, they do this every day for you and me. Thank you to all, for doing what you do. I hope the man makes it, physically and mentally.
Pretty intense rescue. Crunch time. Hopefully he'll look the FF & Medics up when he's healed for a big Thank You.
The burning question is how did this happen?
Fireball Whiskey...
Speed. Speed kills. He dodged one.
both speed and fireball we ski
@@MR1977.First of all that’s know what happened he was coming home from work
Pretty fair assumption that alcohol or driver fatigue were factor(s) in this accident. But does G-d watch over people! And I kinda question the logic of FD that if a 10 to 15 ton fire engine cannot pull a vehicle out from under a tractor trailer, kinda guessing the 4 ton tow truck gonna be less successful. Dude is lucky to be alive for sure!
May God bless all these firemen,police officers and paramedics for being there and helping all these people 🙏😘🙏
His guardian angel was definitely watching over him 👼 I pray 🙏🏾 for a speedy recovery
are you nuts? HE is being tortured. He likely died after that. Guardian angels... what world are you living on>?
@@morbidmanmusic I’ve been burned 😑 not as bad as that ! There’s always hope and you don’t need to be negative. Me sending good vibes is my business and none of yours. Why does what a stranger writes for someone else bother you.🤷🏽♂️
@@morbidmanmusicHe actually didn’t die he’s been in the hospital i don’t know if he’s still in the hospital tho because we know him
Hope all involved are ok ! Prayers to them !
Godbless first responders
That’s a nightmare! The engine is on his lap and awake for the whole show. He was breathing through the pain. I do that when I’m in a lot of kidney pain.
Should've been paying attention!!
@Margie F no 💩 Dick Tracey. He’ll walk away with a healthy dose of reality.
In the UK they give the patients pain medication almost immediately when they are in pain like that, usually morphine or ketamine if it’s really bad. Not sure why they don’t do that here 🤔
@Karen Schickling I was always told it could mask other problems. I’ve had to wait for an ER doctor to let me have pain medicine.
I would think they would give him some kind of pain, medication, or anti-anxiety medication or both while he’s in the car. It looks like they have an IV going and could do that. I understand that sometimes that can mask issues but I don’t think a little bit to take the edge off is going to make a difference. As far as the medical examination goes we could make a big difference for him.
Hard lesson learned! put attention when driving. Lucky man.
Prayers for a speedy and full recovery for this man. Those scenes were just horrific.
He drove drunk and could’ve wiped out you or your family instead of that truck. Why do you wish home a speedy recovery??
I think he’s still rocking out to the stereo. He good
Do we know if he was drinking for distracted while driving? How do you plow behind a semi?
The driver is in a state of shock and won’t remember any of this.
I feel so bad for this poor man trapped in this vehicle. It must be terrifying seeing the flames and dealing with his pain. Why did the truck not have the "Mansfield bumper' that is suppose to stop a vehicle from going under the rear of the truck ??? This was mandatory to all semis and was famously named after Jane Mansfield was decapitated in a vehicle accident rear-ending a semi in june 29th 1967.
Bless these guys for cleaning up this complete mess!
Great job to the hard work for the first responders. Just a couple of observations. The injured driver should have gotten an oxygen mask. When you pour water on the fire this white smoke is suffocating and clearly he was covered a few times with it. And the other one, I am not sure if the 2 trucks were pulling back the SUV with a chain, if they did, people stay away from the snapping point, if that chain brakes many know what can happen.
Oxygen and fire not a great combination very volatile
@@martinmilton-white5172 firefighters use oxygen mask when they go into houses when they are under a lot of smoke when they are on fire
May god bless these man they really work hard to save lifes. Please God bless them and their families , they don't deserve to die, i pray they must live forever and save more lives . I love you dear brothers 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
He’s was obviously doing something he wasn’t supposed to be doing
Awesome video keep up with a great work and be safe out there. 👍 😀
WOW that is being ON SCENE!
The time between 23:00 and 04:00 has the highest percentage of collisions like this.
Seeing this live definitely reigns in my speeding habits. Seriously.
If anything, you should hope it reigns in your, running into the back of truck trailer, habits...
😂😂😂😂
That is a very confronting scene , a complex extrication with an active fire . I find it hard to believe that no breathing extension line was placed on the patient whilst still trapped .
This is why you give them CLEARENCE!!!!!
Never ceases to amaze the predicaments people get themselves into.
yep, I was just wondering if he caused the accident.
The man just got off work and fell asleep. Someone related to him posted that , and he is also recovering.
Rescue workers and responders saved his life
Wish there was a follow-up story, why he crashed into back of a semi trailer eg. DUI ?
Thanks great raw footage
That's a pretty bad one. Glad they got him out alive. I did a TC while I was with heavy rescue at SBCoFD. Two door coupe lost control & wrapped itself around a rural mail box with the I beam stuck in the ground with 4 male victims. Driver easily extradited, 1 DOA, two rear passengers were trapped. Took awhile to unwrap the car from them. One eventually died enroute. Next day, we learned that they were all related (brothers/cousins) and was coming back from a funeral. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. Now the surviving driver would no doubt harbor this for the rest of his life.
I was wondering if R72 was on the scene? The front winch may have been helpful. A tough situation and he made it out alive. Good job!
I swear Fireman have one of the craziest first responders Jobs out there
Dude...how tf is he still alive? That's amazing!
In this video one can see the true meaning of the word “hero”
Drive safe, ya’ll!
Most accidents are preventable.
Great job boys! God bless
Unreal that he survived that inferno
That must have been terrifying, and probably very painful. I think he'll have nightmares for some time. Hopefully, he'll get psychiatric help.
Lol he was drunk fuck him
Emergency workers working at all hours, in all conditions, and have to deal with
extremely challenging situations on a daily basis. They should get free beer and food wherever they go.
Un excelente trabajo de todos. Y cdo aprendan a conducir con cautela, con conciencia, con prolijidad, con conocimiento de normas de conducir dejarán de ocurrir estas graves situaciones.
No aprenden, siempre piensan que sus carros los salvarán.
Complex rescue. Strong work SB
As an Ex-EMT from LA County, totally surprised that he didn't have an oxygen mask on, flowing on high.
Finally! Someone noticed that the patient wasn’t provided remedy to the toxic smoke and chemicals while they took so long to get him out. He was suffering not only the pain but he was struggling to breath too.
One lucky guy!!! Fire Dept, EmT awesome to watch in action, !!
Can't help but to feel soory for this man.
Everybody is afraid of snakes, but I don’t get it. The fear of getting trapped inside a burning car is way worse, just imagine you are driving with your loved ones but Then a semi truck crashes into you, flips your car upside down and your loved ones are dead. Not only did you just crash your car, your seatbelt gets jammed but, wait fire starts and you see the corpse of your loved ones burning and you have to smell the scent of your family’s flesh cooking. Now it’s up to you to get out of the car but you try as hard as you can to break out of the jammed seatbelt while the fire gets closer and closer to you, then you start screaming for mercy that you don’t burn alive and the car explodes before your flesh starts cooking
This is got to be one of the most difficult extractions I've ever seen for the fireman to get a person out of vehicle. The car and the truck are on fire all the time they're trying to get him out and car is wedged permanently under the truck. My God what a mess. I just wonder if he lived after all.
If he had passenger’s they would have been toast 😢
A lot of things could have gone better. That’s why you train .
This video, although being a little graphic, should be in all drivers Education classes across America. Maybe they will take driving seriously.
It's so much fun speeding around semi's!!!
why do they show the faces of the victims in their videos? It shouldn't be allowed! Greatest respect to the rescuers!
I'm absolutely thrilled this driver was saved. That said, I'm thoroughly disappointed that the video SKIPPED THE ENTIRE PROCESS! It showed him in what looked like a potentially hopeless predicament then, *POOF* he's on a gurney, on the way into an ambulance! I cannot be the only one who comes here for the PROCESS?? To see how they puzzle and prize the twisted metal away without further damage to the human??!! To pull the truck out from under, and roll the dash off the gentleman; maybe removing the roof, or not. Will they take him out the top, or the door? Which pillars will be cut and in what order? Will seats come out, doors come off? It's a fascinating PROCESS... and this video LEFT IT ALL OUT. sigh. Maybe next time.
Well, DAMN. There's a GREAT shot of him ALMOST OUT and *POOF* !! It's over. So much for THAT 5.5 minutes. Glad they got him out. I come here to WATCH THE PROCESS, *NOT* have it cut to done. sigh.
