00:01Your house is on fire! Your house is on fire!
00:04It's on fire!
00:05I know, my dad's calling the police.
00:07You guys gotta get out.
00:14So basically it was prom night.
00:16We ended up leaving and decided to go to our friend's house.
00:18And on the way there, we saw a huge garage just engulfed in flames.
00:23And we were just astonished at what was happening.
00:26We ended up running up to the house and making sure no one was in there.
00:30I went up to the fire and I was trying to see if there was anyone in it, like, screaming.
00:35And I made sure there was no one in there.
00:36And then as I backed up to go to the actual house to get the people out,
00:40it kind of exploded, like, right in front of me.
00:42It was, like, making all these popping noises.
00:44The garage ended up exploding multiple times.
00:46There must have been, like, propane digs in there or something.
00:49But it was insane and it was pretty scary.
00:52But I was just worrying about getting those kids out.
00:55It's okay.
00:55You guys better get out.
00:56You're okay.
00:58You're okay.
00:59You're okay.
01:00It's like fight or flight.
01:02You just have to do it.
01:04And we didn't think twice.
01:05And we're glad we were there because there was no one else really around.
01:08So we're glad we were there because we don't know if the family would have gotten help.
01:11But we're just grateful.
