Back in November, a guy named Eric Heffelmire was working on his truck in Vienna, Virginia, just outside D.C. He was in his garage when it slipped off the jack, and he was pinned him underneath. Which also started a fire somehow.

Luckily his daughter Charlotte happened to be home, and she's a savage. She's 19 years old, and recently got accepted to the U.S. Air Force Academy.

She's only about 5'6" and 120 pounds, but somehow she summoned super strength to lift the truck up with her bare hands just enough so he could squeeze out from underneath.

Then she realized the gas tank could explode. So she jumped in the driver's seat of the truck, floored it in reverse, and got it away from the house. Which probably prevented the entire house from going up.

The rest of her family was inside, firefighters say she actually saved six lives in total, including her dad's. And they gave her an award for it last Thursday.

She ended up with burns on her hands and feet, and also hurt her back when she lifted the truck. So she has to put her Air Force Academy plans on hold for now while she recovers. But... she'd recovering as a hero!
