Trapped in a car by a storm, the video of the last-minute rescue

A motorist stuck in a downpour, water rising rapidly up to the door and a last-minute rescue with a rope. Torrential rain that hit San Antonio, Texas, caused flooding and inundation. A motorist, on board his pick-up, was swept away by an impressive mass of water: the road quickly transformed into a raging river and the vehicle remained stuck with the water level constantly rising.

The man documented the dramatic moments by making a video that was shared on Instagram by the Accuweather profile. To save him, before the situation degenerated definitively, a firefighter who threw him a rope and pulled him to safety.
