Talk about turning around a hot situation into a very cool affair. Mark Schocroft, a young automotive electrician from the Australian city of Adelaide, was in for a nasty surprise on Friday morning when he saw his Ford Falcon ute engulfed in flames.
Apparently, the butane bottles in the pickup truck’s bed exploded. Thankfully, bypassers notified Schocroft who ran outside the pizza place and extinguished the fire.
What makes this story cool is that Schocroft, far from shocked, checked out his Falcon ute and once he made sure that the basics work, he drove the car to his job!
Schocroft told 7News that he was concerned he would be late for work. “I didn’t know what the bosses would say…,” explained the young man.
