News, Actor Dick Van Dyke survives car fire on Los Angeles-area freeway: police

I'm surprised nobody has yet mentioned about the good Samaritan who pulled Dick from his burning car?

I'm just surprised that nobody is talking about him?

Nice that guy stopped to help, these days most would just film it and watch rather than do something. I couldn't tell what kind of car it was without seeing the label, as cars all look so much alike today. I guess it was a Jag. I liked his old TV show, back when TV had only 3 channels but something worth watching.

The rescuer probably staged the whole thing.

Oh, wait..........that was a different crash. In Sanford FL, I believe.

Is it just me or this sounds hilarious and bizarre at the same time?
