Just when the situation was tense, they alerted the emergency services. Various rescue workers also had to improvise with their experience and equipment in order to free the older man out of the falling vehicle. Ultimately, the man who was slightly hypothermic came, but thanks to the extraordinary rapidity of both men, unharmed. For their courageous action, both the man who made the emergency call and the medical helpers were honored with an award, which underlines how important civil courage is in critical situations.
