Former NFL defensive end Brandon Bair saves man after fiery train crash

Former NFL defensive end Brandon Bair saved a man from a flaming semi-truck minutes after it had been struck by a train, according to East Idaho News.

Bair said he was driving on a highway in St. Anthony, Idaho, on Thursday when he saw a train plow into a semi-truck, triggering an immediate explosion. After calling 911, Bair was spurned into action after hearing a voice from inside the truck, which had caught flame following the crash.

"It was a conscious decision that I'm going in because he needs help right now," Bair told East Idaho News.
