A driver rescued a fellow motorist who had suffered an electric shock in central China.

Dashcam video captured in the city of Zhumadian in Henan Province on August 22 shows a driver walking around the back of his vehicle suddenly falling down onto the ground in heavy rain having got an electric shock from a broken utility pole that had blocked his way.

A man driving in the area spotted the stricken motorist and pulled the motorist away from the utility pole using his own clothes and then performed CPR on him to try to revive him.

The stricken motorist regained consciousness and was moved to the side of the road.

According to reports, a utility pole was blown down by strong winds and blocked the motorist’s path, so he got off his car to check to investigate but got an electric shock.

The motorist is having treatment in hospital.

8月22日，河南驻马店泌阳县羊册镇东边一乡间路段，暴雨天气，一辆车被因风雨过大吹落在路边的电线挡住去路，司机下车查看时不小心触电倒地。驾车路过的90后小伙程军伟刚好看到，立刻冒雨飞奔到触电司机身旁，将脱下来的上衣拧成一根“绳”套在触电司机头部，将其拉离了电线位置，整个过程仅用了15秒。
见触电人依然昏迷不醒，脸部严重烧伤，程军伟对其尝试进行心肺复苏，并不断呼喊触电人醒醒，但一时未见效果；为争取救援时间，程军伟竭尽全力抱起触电人，往路旁的屋檐下移动。在抱起的过程中，昏迷中的触电男子逐渐有了意识。
据了解，1993年出生的程军伟毕业于弹药工程与爆炸技术专业，现在是泌阳县人民检察院第四检察部的一名书记员。
26日上午，记者联系到了被救的触电司机王振，他是驻马店泌阳县羊册镇上冯村委治安主任，当天送完村里独居老人到医院打疫苗后突发暴雨，因为担心家中两个年幼的孩子，他才冒雨回家，不想路上出了事儿，“触电那一刻，我觉得自己已经是个死人了”，说到这里，王振泪如雨下，他说恢复意识后甚至给8岁的儿子打电话留好了遗言，“我说爸爸（假如）今天晚上挺不过去死了，希望你照顾好你妹妹”。所幸王振挺了过来，目前他仍在医院接受治疗，“他（程军伟）给了第二次生命，等我好了，我去当面谢谢他”。（视频由河南台提供）
