Heart-stopping surveillance video captured the moment a man cleaning his windshield at a Nebraska gas station miraculously dodged death by sidestepping a speeding driver who flipped his car.
The wild crash occurred in the small town of Brady on Friday, while Brady Johnson had his truck parked at the Brady Get-n-Go shortly before 7pm, according to the Lincoln County Sheriff's Office.
Video shows Johnson wiping down his windshield as a speeding Nissan Altima suddenly barrels into view, skidding on the street before crashing through a street pole.
The car then hurtles toward Johnson, whose quick reaction likely saved his life.
Footage shows the Nissan clipping Johnson's truck and coming within inches of striking him before skidding on its side and finally coming to a stop.
Johnson, with a squeegee still in his hand, could be seen running over to offer help to the driver.
The sheriff's office said that Johnson suffered a minor leg injury, which only started to bother him later when the adrenaline from the crash wore off.
The driver of the Nissan was taken to the hospital with minor injuries.

Authorities issued him with a ticket for reckless driving, saying investigators determined that he was traveling at a minimum of 65 miles per hour in a 40-mile-per-hour zone.
The driver was also cited for not having a license or proof of insurance, as well as expired registration.
A cook at the gas station told the Daily Mail that the Nissan had Texas license plates and that it also destroyed a neon sign there displaying gas prices.
The worker, Deanna Anderson, added that Johnson is a military veteran who grew in Brady and frequents the station.
'His parents named him after the town,' she said. 'Just a good guy.'
The Daily Mail has contacted Johnson for comment.
Observers have previously seized on the drivers of Nissan Altimas as the main culprits behind a series of car crashes, hair-raising police chases and comical mistakes.
The make and model has developed a reputation online for being associated with such incidents, with enthusiasts uploading photos and videos dedicated to 'Big Altima Energy.'
