Can you imagine being in a life-threatening situation and still being able to save another person’s life?

This may seem impossible or too difficult to do, but it actually happens.

One man proved that a terrifying situation will not stop you from doing what should be done in order to rescue another.

The unthinkable happened to Logan Schneider one day, while “blowing cherries” in the field.

The 19-year-old young man was drying the fruits when he suddenly saw a figure crashing in his direction. It was a helicopter and it did crash in the area where Logan was working, only it barely missed him.

However, the helicopter fell right on the tractor and it got stuck. Apparently, Logan was wearing noise-canceling headphones when the helicopter crashed which led to him being unaware of the terrible thing about to happen.

The sound of the tractor must have been quite loud already and the young man did not notice that a far more disturbing sound was coming his way.

It was fortunate that Logan was not hit by the helicopter.

“I looked up and that’s when I saw it,” he said. “As soon as I saw it coming down on me, I was like, ‘Oh no, this is gonna hit me.’”

He was prepared for the worst, but the worst did not happen. However, he was not entirely saved from the crash.

Logan ended up being pinned on the steering wheel of the tractor, but he was able to free himself and move away from the helicopter. The next thing he did was remarkable.

Logan saw the driver, a 39-year-old man, and moved him away from the helicopter to save his life.

Cori Johnson, the pilot, was hanging upside down from his harness when Logan saw him and worked on freeing him. Cori was the only person in the helicopter at the time and he had no passengers on board.

Logan heard Cori’s screams so he looked for the man and sprung into action. Despite the massive fire everywhere, Cori and Logan got out of the crash site safely.

Both men were fine with only a few scratches from the incident.

Logan was totally unaware of the impending danger until he saw the helicopter when it was very near and he could not move away anymore. He was fortunate for being just in the right place and was barely saved from the harrowing event.

On the other hand, Logan’s presence at the crash site saved Cori’s life. Both men could not imagine what would have happened had Logan left the field earlier.

Everything happened for a reason.

Although something terrible happened, we can see from this inspiring story that being kind makes a huge difference, even in the worst situations where one’s life is at risk.

Surely, God planned for everything to happen this way and both men could not be more grateful for another shot at life that was given to them.
