Imagine being the neighbors who saved a national treasure from certain doom. People would get sick of me telling that hero’s journey! I would be insufferable 😏

He is so wonderful. And god bless those who helped him get out. People…think of this when you say “it’s fine it’s all just celebrities, they can rebuild”. Celebrities are people too.

He is so humble and grateful and never worries about how people will view him. What was most important to him wasn't his dignity but expressing thanks for who helped him during a dangerous time. 🥹❤️

Thank God for the kindness that still remains in some people’s hearts. I think it’s rare. Most people would just run and not think about those left behind.

I’m glad he is okay, and he has great neighbors. Despite what he went through, he gave an interview to let everyone know he got out of that ordeal.

I am so glad he made it out safely. But,Why was his wife just sitting in the car while he was crawling to get out!! She is definitely a lot younger than him.
