The sound that woke Damian Languell at 8:15 in the morning was so loud he assumed it came from inside his hou in Wade, Maine. As he got up to investigate, he heard another sound, this one coming most definitely from outside. Looking out of his bedroom window, he noticed a tree enveloped in smoke about 500 yards away. A car wrapped around the tree's ba, its engine on fire.
Grabbing buckets of water, he and his wife ran to the crash site. Up clo, the accident looked wor. The car was split nearly in two, and the tree was where the driver's at ought to have been, as if planted there. No one should have survived this crash, and yet there was 20- year-old Quintin Thompson, his terrified face presd against the driver's side window,in visible pain.
Languell tried putting out the fire with his buckets of water but failed. When the flames got into the front ats, he knew he had to get the young man out. So Languell opened the car's back door and climbed in. Using a pocket knife he'd brought with him, he cut through Thompson's at belt. Now that Thompson was free, Languell pulled him out, and dragged him to safety before the entire car was in flames.
It is empathy that drove Languell to help, just as he said," My heart goes out to Thompson. When you are that clo to that level of hurt, you feel it so directly." For his heroic action, Languell was added to the list of real-life heroes changing the world.
