Now, if you unfortunately found yourself in a car crash the last person you would expect to come to your rescue is wrestling star Hulk Hogan. But that is exactly what happened to one teen.
Hogan, his wife, Sky Daily, and a friend, were driving in Tampa, Florida, when they witnessed a car crash.
Daily took to social media to explain what happened and fans simply can’t believe it.
“Last night, after we left dinner in Tampa, we saw a car flip in front of us,” she wrote on Facebook on Monday (January 15).

“I truly admire my husband @hulkhogan and our good buddy @jakerask for springing into action, puncturing the girls airbag, and getting her quickly out of the car. By all appearances, she was unscathed, just really rattled, which is an absolute miracle!"
According to TMZ, the driver was a 17-year-old girl who had attempted to cross lanes to make an exit she was about to miss but managed to clip another car in the process before completely flipping over.
Hogan, and his friend, Jake Rask, who is believed to be a marine, leapt into action to rescue the teen.

The wrestling star also posted about the incident on X and said he was able to pop the airbag with a pen he had on hand.
“The crazy part about the teenager that flipped her car was that without a knife to puncture the airbags to get her out, a Indian Rocks Christian ballpoint pen came in really handy to pot the bags, thank you God, all is well even now, Amen HH,” he wrote.
According to NBC, Tampa Police Department said there were only minor injuries as a result of the crash.
