After Hulk Hogan and his pal Jake got to the car that had flipped upside down, they helped a 17-year-old girl get out.
Jake, a former Marine, popped the girl's airbag with a pen and he and Hulk both unbuckled her seatbelt and assisted her in safely leaving the vehicle.

After the accident, Hulk Hogan's wife took to social media to praise her husband.
"Last night, after we left dinner in Tampa, we saw a car flip in front of us! I truly admire my husband @hulkhogan and our good buddy @jakerask for springing into action, puncturing the girls airbag, and getting her quickly out of the car," Sky Daily wrote. "By all appearances, she was unscathed, just really rattled, which is an absolute miracle!"

On Jan. 15, Hulk Hogan applauded his pal's resourcefulness in the moment.
"The crazy part about the teenager that flipped her car was that without a knife to puncture the airbags to get her out a[n] Indian Rocks Christian ballpoint pen came in really handy to po[p] the bags, thank you God, all is well even now, Amen," he wrote.
