A heroic man kicked the front windscreen open to rescue three people trapped in a minibus after it tipped over and burst into flames in southern China.

The CCTV video, shot in the city of Chongqing on June 26, shows a minibus suddenly smashing into the guardrails on the roadside and flipping on to its side.

The smoke was seen rising up from the bottom of the minibus, followed by huge flames.

A man in the car opened the door to try to climb out of it but he saw the massive flames and went back into the car. Another man named Luo ran to the minibus to kick the front windscreen repeatedly until it was broken.

Three people then climbed out of the minibus through a hole on the front windscreen.

Thanks to Luo, only one man named Gao had minor scratches, the other two people were not injured at all.

According to reports, Luo witnessed the incident when he drove a truck past the area. He then stopped his truck in an emergency lane and ran to rescue the people trapped in the minibus.

近日，银昆高速永川段，一辆面包车突然发生侧翻、起火，车上3人被困。紧急时刻，一名路过司机上演“硬核”救人一幕：跑到车前用力4连踹前挡风玻璃，最终帮助车内3人顺利逃出。
26日上午，面包车驾驶员高某驾车行驶至银昆高速永川段时，突然听到底盘有异响，本以为是右后轮爆胎，他就轻踩了两下刹车，没想车辆突然失控撞向路边防护栏发生侧翻。
“当时车上还有我舅舅和侄女。最初我们试图从副驾驶位逃出，但开门后，发现车辆起火，就打算打碎前挡风玻璃，从车前逃离。”高某回忆，这时，一名男子朝车跑过来，对着他们大喊“快点（出来）”，接着又对着前挡风玻璃一阵猛踹。见挡风玻璃松动，他们也在车内使劲儿往外踹，最终前挡风玻璃被打破，3人先后逃出。
监控画面记录下事发瞬间：面包车燃起了熊熊烈火。一男子跑到车前，用力连踹4脚，前挡风玻璃开裂，车内3人逐步钻出……

“通过监控可以看到，男子从上前救人到救出人，只有40余秒时间。”执法人员表示，因抢救及时，除高某被玻璃轻微划伤外，车上其余人员均未受伤。
28日下午，华龙网-新重庆客户端记者也联系上救人男子罗先生。38岁的罗先生是一名货车司机。当天他驾车经过发现侧翻起火的面包车后，就把货车停在应急车道，跑上前救人。“当时车辆底盘已经起火，又是侧翻，想打开车门并不容易。”罗先生称，他发现前挡风玻璃处有裂痕，才用脚一阵猛踹，希望踹碎玻璃救人，“只是做了一点小事，尽了自己一份力而已”。（视频由重庆台提供）
