Kelly Clarkson Meets Louisville Firefighters Behind Incredible Bridge Rescue

[@lindagannon3864]

That was my precious nephew Tyler Williams that was on his own fourwheeler that Bryce was driving . We miss Tyler so much and it has devestated our family but Tyler told Bryce Pray Out Loud . God left you here Bryce to save this young lady Godbless. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@theginganinja-_-7695]

Thank you Kelly for spotlighting these men and giving them a chance to talk about it. Awesome job brothers.

[@bz5300]

When everyone else is losing their shit and running away, these men and women go running on to save a life. These are heroes and role models.

[@RM-xr8lq]

more like in these occidental countries you can get sued for helping, so everyone stays out of it 😂

[@sweezs4874]

There was a guy that stayed with her the entire time, until the firefighters arrived, shout-out to him for staying there and talking with her!! Sir you did an amazing job, just by being like !! Blessing upon you and everyone else!!!

[@michaelmaps2004]

Thank you for remembering him

[@christinacraft6454]

Does anyone no who he is?

I was looking for this comment! Word!

[@MsMarmolade]

I’m a female Sysco truck driver and this driver is inspiring on so many levels.

[@MrWill1985]

Be safe on the roadways. I'm currently a flatbed tractor trailer driver.

[@chrishutchison621]

This is why Kelly Clarkson Rocks

[@PaulaJ-q5d]

Agree but could they get a gift card or something?

[@ladytiff3610]

Shoutout to the guy that stayed with her the entire time to keep her calm... He is the Angel God sent to her ❤ God Held that truck up...

[@lindsaycordova91]

From Louisville and watched the whole rescue live on the news that day. I’m amazed by their bravery and skill!! Truly wonderful people. God bless them all and that driver.

[@michaellake5269]

First responders rock. Police, firefighters, EMT - thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[@alliecollin1748]

Ummmm....I'm VERY cautious about including cops in that group.....isn't that a SHAME???? 💔

[@monicasmm]

Most police don’t belong in that group unfortunately, too many of them have innocent blood on their hands. But yes firefighters and EMT are heroes.

[@wizzyone6789]

Uvalde police too?

[@LalaBrawand]

From Louisville Kentucky born and raised so proud our firefighters get to have this moment after this!! Proud to be from Louisville Ky!!❤❤

[@Anon54387]

Great story how everyone avoided panic. That truck was hanging on by a thread. Rather amazing it didn't fall to the river, not to mention how odd that it managed to turn sharp enough to fit through the bridge members. What ruined it for me is that attention seeking politician calling in, he had nothing to do with the brave action of all involved, but he had to be a politician getting his face in front of the public even if he had to shoehorn his way in. Still, that politician being a typical slimeball politician takes nothing away from the folks involved in this.

[@jacquelinevs]

So glad these firefighters get to share this story

[@19meme68]

As a Lu-a-vull 😉 Kentucky native…I was brought to tears. Our first responders don’t always get the kiddos they deserve but they are HEROS. Our Louisville police put their lives on the line a year ago at the Old National Bank mass shooting where the first officer that moved towards the shooter was shot in the head and has survived and works so hard to heal and get stronger every day. Kiddos to these firefighters, police and first responders. Kentucky Proud

I'm sorry to hear that. It annoys me when cars drive wreckless around semi's. Especially knowing we cannot stop on a dime.

As a female driver, thank you hero's for what you do for us. Each day we set out, we never know how others will drive around us. You saved a beautiful hard working Mother that day. May you all be blessed always.

The dashcam video is terrifying. The driver had Zero chance. Thank you First Responders❤

[@whiskerbiscuit6209]

yes i saw that it was so frightening

[@Thegeneralms1]

Retired fire chief, the minute I saw this picture of that truck, I couldn’t figure out how it had not fallen off the bridge. Hell of a rescue guys.

[@georgetterobinson01]

I just watched her first interview with a news channel from a few days ago they have the comments turned off. But it brought tears to my eyes because i can't imagine how it must feel to see ur life flash before ur eyes and see that open water being in that big truck thinking ur about to die a slow and painful death. I watched the live news cast that day and im so glad she survived. Nobody deserves to die like that. Brave , Brave woman!!❤

[@MrWill1985]

It brought tears to my eyes too. If I could be there for emotional support I would. I'm glad she is okay. I did have the ability to reach out to her when I could find her on Facebook and I gave her advice and encouragement. And shared my experiences returning to work after 2 major accidents.

[@whiskerbiscuit6209]

@@MrWill1985 i had a serious accident in my semi in january and it's still hard to get back in the truck sometimes. It's just not the same after that. I remember seeing this young woman on the news and i was like good lord i can't even imagine how frightening that was. i cried on that interview too, I think it was the same video too as the comments were turned off.

[@MrWill1985]

@@whiskerbiscuit6209 I'm sure hanging off the Clark memorial bridge was frightening for her. After my 2017 Rollover the company had a trainer ride along with me the first day back to see how I did. And I did well. It took a few days to get over and so did the jack knife on icy roads.

@MrWill1985 I took a couple days off because i hurt so bad but i got back in the 3rd day to go out to pick up a load and go get my stuff from my busted truck (3 hours away) because my car keys were still in it and i really needed them. It was terrible but if i didnt get back in and drive then id never get back in.

[@santiagob.]

everyone needs to acknowledge the guys and gals that take pride in taking care of you when you can't take care of yourself. First responders are appreciated here.

THEY ABSOLUTELY DESERVED THAT RECOGNITION... BRAVO GUYS

So proud of our Louisville firefighters. I can not even imagine what was going through their minds, and the lady who was rescued! It was definitely scary watching it live.

[@MrWill1985]

I reached out to Sydney Thomas not long after the incident. And I gave her advice and encouragement. I hope she overcomes the fear after returning to work

I’m a OIF injured Army retired vet at 39. I truly love my fellow military vets, fire fighters, police, first responders, and everyone in the hospital field. People don’t understand how dangerous it can be. You can truly not come home one day and that’s scary. Most people will never know what these professionals do to help people. They put their lives on the line every single day for others they don’t even know. It takes a certain type of brave person to do these type or careers. So 👏
