A man riding his paramotor at the right place at the right time helped rescue a woman after her car ended up in a south Florida canal.
Cristiano Piquet told WSVN that a splash caught his eye.
“Then I turn around to get a better shot with my GoPro, and I see a car in the canal, in the same canal,” he said, “and I flew closer to the car, and I saw someone inside the car, like, asking for help.”
Piquet landed near the canal and ran over to help the woman. The rescue was all caught on camera, and he posted the subsequent video to social media.
