A Video of Strangers Rescuing a Stuck Motorist Will Restore Your Faith in Humanity
In a heartwarming turn of events, a group of strangers banded together to help a car that got stuck on snowy train tracks in Portland, Oregon. In a world often filled with negativity, it’s refreshing to see stories that remind us about the goodness of people.
On a chilly Friday morning, a Mustang found itself in a precarious situation, stranded on the MAX train tracks just as a train was approaching. Thankfully, four heroic individuals sprang into action from different directions, pushing the car to safety just moments before the train barreled through. The entire incident was captured on video and shared by KMTR News on Facebook.
A witness, a physical therapy student named Alex Mitchell, recounted the scene, saying, “We saw this red Mustang struggling a bit. It got to the light and tried to cross those MAX tracks, but it got stuck.” He added, “It was amazing how quickly four or five people jumped in to rock the car free in about 10 to 15 seconds before the MAX train came through.” Watching this unfold was nerve-wracking, especially knowing it was the second stuck vehicle he had seen that morning. “It felt dangerous at first, but then seeing everyone rush to help was really uplifting,” he said.
In a time when the news can often feel overwhelming, moments like these serve as a powerful reminder that compassion still exists, even among strangers. Sure, some local officials downplayed the risk, noting that trains slow down at intersections, but let’s not rain on this parade—this Mustang definitely could use some snow tires!
