An Incredible Rescue Mission Saved A Man Trapped In Colorado Floods

Three have died in a flood in Colorado that has swallowed cars and caused 2 to 3 feet deep mudslides. In this remarkable video from this morning, rescuers saved one man close to drowning after his car flipped over.

A man trapped in a flipped car was close to death, but in an incredible feat, rescue workers were able to drag him out of the vehicle alive.

First, the rescuers successfully turn a flipped car on its side after suspecting a person may be inside.

They break the car's window and find a man inside, who is conscious. They offer him a lifejacket and try to help him out the window.

But then the car suddenly falls over again — the newscaster cut to commercial, afraid of airing a causality on live television.

When when the show returns, the newscasters reveal the man is safe.

The rescue workers opened the car door, found the man still conscious, and dragged him to safety.

Good job, Colorado rescue workers!
