Near miss in West Gardiner, Maine as a man pumping gas almost gets sideswiped by a car skidding out of control towards the pumps.

He got so lucky and says so. Not only could the car have hit him, but if it hit the pumps...

Here's what happens (below) when a car hits a gas pump and it goes up in flames.

VIDEO NOTES: This is amazing - the crash happens right at the start and everyone runs. At 14 seconds, a man runs back to the crashed car and rescues the driver. Remarkable footage! Not sure where this happened - the video says it's from Westchester (?)
