This Man Proves That Not All Heroes Wear Capes-Some Wear Glasses And A Cane

A 22-year-old driver and her passenger were speeding around a curve in Burleson in Johnson County, and lost control of the vehicle and flipped it right into someone’s front yard. That someone, was 85-year-old Lindell Marbut.

Marbut, who uses a cane to get around, immediately went outside to see what happened. His caretaker ran next door to call 911 for help, while he did the unthinkable.
Marbut went over to the car and began to try and free the 2 females from the car.

“When I got back over here this way, he was beating on the front windshield with a cane,” Sondra Young, Marbut’s caretaker, recalls.

But this is what is truly amazing, Marbut says he saw the woman’s hand sticking out, so he grabbed it, and pulled her out and dragged her to his garage without a second thought.

Upon seeing this, Young went to assist Marbut, and they began to pull out the passenger and take her to the garage for safety as well.

“Amazing, 85-years-old and he drug her into the garage. I couldn’t believe it. He can barely walk as it is. He has to use a cane to walk,” comments young.

As first responders and firefighters arrived, they were amazed to find that both women were out of the car and safe.

“If it wasn’t for the gentleman to pull them out, it wouldn’t have been a good turnout,” says Keith Flemming of the Johnson County Fire Department. Both women suffer from serious injuries, but will be okay, and are lucky to be alive.

But Marbut, who in our opinion, and many others, doesn’t feel like a hero.

“I just feel like an old man trying to save somebody’s life. I’d do it again if I had to,” Marbut says.

Most people would have just called 911, but not Marbut. He went to the burning car to save those young girls lives while risking his own. Something even most police officers would be scared to do.
