I wanna say something mean but it's now a fucking wholesome story

jeeez. Driving in snow is horrifying. I had to do it when going to vermont for the holidays and it was like...3-4 years since I last drove. I panicked every single time the car slid, and everyone else in the car was exhausted so they couldn't even drive. and then when I got to the destination the car got stuck in the middle of a hill, so every time I tried to move it slid backwards. gadushdfladjfdslkjflkj I hated it.

I once had to drive to work in thick snow and my car got stuck. I arrived at work 2 hours late and couldn’t start straight away, because I was shivering so much and my fingers were numb. I should’ve called in sick.

Yes please keep yourself safe. So many New Yorkers died during the blitz this year cuz they thought they could drive through such a crazy blizzard.

they never should have asked you to come in the first place or expected to show up after being stuck in freezing weather for 2 hours. sad and mad that this is just normal tho :c

Jesus, large machinery is scary. I wonder if they are gonna end up making any safety modifications to the vehicles to prevent future incidents like this.

What?! You always use the emergency brake! A car is a weapon when not properly secured. The emergency break is there for emergencies bc you can't tell when a heavy machine will malfunction. It's very unsafe.

[aotearoagal]

The handbrake is not an "emergency" brake. It's the full brake to make sure your car doesn't move. Especially when you're not in it.

Boggles my mind that people don't engage their handbrake before they exit the vehicle.

I've only seen this once when I was showing a US tourist around Auckland. And they'd stopped on a hill.

the more info i hear the more insane it is that he's alive (and has two legs)

i don't really understand how getting in the cab was going to stop the plow from sliding sideways, seems like kind of a lost cause at that point, but i guess in high pressure situations you don't always think through stuff

[zibbydoo324]

Yah I get in his situation he could only react. Let’s be honest… he probably has done similar stunts throughout his career. But those are highly supervised and protected. His adrenaline probably kicked in and he went on autopilot. His autopilot is just a lot different from most of ours.

[anna_bea2]

Yeah. It sounds like he just saw that it was going towards his nephew and logic went out the window.

the fact that he stepped on the moving track to try to get back inside oooof. He really is very lucky to be alive.

[scarygibberish]

Wait, did we get a leg update and I missed it?

[zibbydoo324]

I’m just going to say that I have been so freakishly impressed with his recovery. It’s been a little over a few weeks and I can’t believe the drastic leaps he has made. I know he has a long road ahead of him but I don’t think anyone expected these kinds of insights from him so quickly.
