snowplow

What would you do if you had a not so exciting job, say a snowplow operator, and you saw an opportunity to do something extraordinary?

Would you spring into action and become a working class hero or sit on the sidelines and be a cowardly lion, waiting for the “proper” authorities? Well a snow plowman from the Midwest stepped up his “snow game” and snuffed out a car fire in mere minutes.

LiveLeak released a video of this Good Samaritan in which you can hear him coming up with the idea of plowing snow over the burning car while on the radio with his supervisor. Luckily for this snowplow operator, his dispatcher agreed with the move and made sure that firefighters checked up on the situation even after the fire was out.

This video has been going viral and it sure brings back faith in humanity after the latest snowplow video that was posted a couple of weeks ago (that video showed a news reporter being overtaken by a wave of snow as the result of a plowman doing his job).

Well played snow plowman, well played.
