Video: Good Samaritans rescue man from flaming car crash in California (ABC News)

The dramatic rescue of a driver from the burning wrecking of his car has been captured on video.

The footage shows California Highway Patrol officers and bystanders pulling a man through the car's sunroof while the vehicle, engulfed in flames, lies on its side.

Four people were trying to remove the unconscious man from the car, while others tried to extinguish the fire to protect the driver and his rescuers.

It took several seconds to get the 24-year-old man, Dson Woods, away from the burning wreckage.

According to California Highway Patrol's (CHP) San Bernardino unit, the four-vehicle crash happened on a highway near San Bernardino.

Mr Woods' Lexus overturned and came to rest on its side. A passenger was able to get out of the wreckage, but Mr Woods was unconscious.

"CHP officers responded to the scene and immediately spotted Woods through the open sun roof," CHP said in a statement.

"The CHP officers, without hesitation, ran to the burning vehicle and despite the extreme heat from the flames, selflessly extricated Woods from the vehicle."

Well, we know for sure you wouldn't have tried to help anyone who wasn't white.

Just pointing out the facts, Racist Rod. I don't know what color the driver's skin was, but it definitely would have mattered to you if you were involved in the rescue effort.

”Media player: "Space" to play, "M" to mute, "left" and "right" to seek.”

I stopped reading there.

However, I also read the title: ”Rescuers pull unconscious driver from burning car in California” and I’ve got a feeling that this is all I need to know about this story. It sounds like someone saved someone elses life today.

Facts like how you believe a suitable punishment for parking in a handicapped space is murder? Yeah, those types of facts about you should be pointed out often.

"Facts like how you believe a suitable punishment for parking in a handicapped space is murder?"

Subjecting them to me seems kind of cruel and unusual.

Sure she would if she determined the reward was worth the risk.

woodummy, able-bodied people that park in handicap spaces certainly deserve your support.

Why do you hate people less fortunate than yourself? Does that make you feel like a big man?

So now you are the one who wants people murdered when they park in handicap spaces.

Do you feel as confused as you sound?

The world of facebook is a small world indeed.

I posted this story on my facebook four days ago and yesterday I received a response to it.

The girl that responded to this said the guy they pulled out of the car is her best friend. Needless to say, she is extremely grateful to those who risked their lives to save him.

I hope he makes a full recovery.
