kinda funny...that big guy in the beginning tried or thought about trying to lift the car himself.Also i was impressed with that female.She seemed hell bent on finding a way to get that guy out.
just an fyi to anyone ever in that position.You can lift more/easier if you put your back against the object you are trying to lift.

Cool to see people lend help though
The guy in the suit was probably the car driver. I think it was mentioned that he cut off the motorcycle.

Being this happened in Utah, I'm not surprised. The people there are "can do" kind of people.

Your right , I lived in Kansas City when the Hyatt Hotel had the big catastrophe and the the 3 suspended skywalks loaded with people collapsed during a free concert they were having . I Worked for a heavy equipment dealer about 1 1/2 miles away , shop foreman called said he needed help they were going to move some big lifting units and dozers down to help . Wasn't 3 minutes after the news flash I got the call . I wiped out the glass front of the place with a D-3 for better access getting responders and equipment in where needed . Spent the next 36 hrs doing whatever I could , just couldn't walk away .
