Change a tyre and save a life
An American man who stopped to help change a flat car tyre for two stranded women had no idea that his good deed would save his life! Victor Giesbrecht pulled over to assist the two ladies who had been stranded by flat car tyres. Driving along Route 94 Victor had mentioned to wife he was not feeling great. Putting his own health to one-side Victor decided to pull over and help the ladies in their tyre fitting. Route 94 runs between Wisconsin and Minnesota and Sara Berg whose car had broken down thought she might be stranded for hours. Sara, 62, a qualified nursing assistant was very thankful to Victor who managed to get her on her way again.
Victor who then jumped back into his truck and drove off did not get to far up the road before having his own troubles. Victors wife managed to flag down a passing car, which as luck would have it was Sara who he had only just helped 2 miles before. Sara must have thought she would be helping him change his 4×4 tyres, only to find that Victor was having a heart attack. They do say what goes around comes around! Sara’s medical training and her immediate medical assistance helped to save Victor’s life.
This amazing story just shows the importance of looking after your tyres and helping each other!
