The beauty of living in a country where services work is that
even in the most dire circumstance, help is just a phone call
away.
Amazing footage from Rural Metro Fire Department in
Phoenix, Arizona captured the moment a helicopter swept in
to rescue two men who were trapped in their SUV on a
flooded river bed.
The driver had tried to pass a creek bed that is usually clear
but unknown to him, it was flooded following heavy rains the
night before.
The men called the fire department when they became stuck
in rushing, shallow water around 8am .
Emergency crews rushed in, some by helicopter, to pull the
men from the SUV.
Two hours later at 10.15am , the two were safely extracted
from their vehicle safe and sound without injuries.
