In a tweet, Hogan revealed the resourcefulness needed in the rescue, using a ballpoint pen when a knife wasn’t available to puncture the airbags. He concluded with a heartfelt “thank you God, all is well.”

Wife Sky Daily noted that the teen girl emerged “unscathed, just really rattled, which was a miracle.” Tampa police are investigating the cause of the accident.
Online reactions ranged from astonishment to humor, with one comment humorously imagining the first words after a car flip being “you all right, brother?!” β a nod to the famous wrestler residing in the Tampa Bay area.
Jake Rask, the fellow Good Samaritan alongside Hogan that night, expressed relief, stating, “We are just glad sheβs OK, and God put us there at the right time.”
Hogan, known for his WWE persona, demonstrated his real-life heroism, proving that sometimes, a “brother” helps another when it matters most.
