A Missouri utility worker nearly died after it appears the telephone pole upon which he was working suddenly caught on fire.

Thankfully, someone soon came to help him, while another dude stood by and captured this video:

The video shows the guy, understandably, freaking the fuck out. “Hurry up, bro! Hurry the fuck up!” he screams. Hey, not the other dude’s fault these cars are slow!
Eventually, the second man is able to save the dude after putting his cart below the burning one and catching the now-very-relieved utility worker.
“Fuck!” he screams after the rescue.
