Man Moves Burning Car Away From Brisbane Home

Occurred on February 8, 2026 / Brisbane, Australia

Info from Licensor: "Exclusive 2K first-person POV footage captured on Meta smart glasses in Brisbane, Australia. A car suddenly catches fire beside a residential home, with flames breaking out near the petrol cap and creating an immediate risk of explosion.

With the house just metres away, I make a split-second decision to physically move the burning vehicle away from the home before it can explode. After repositioning the car, I work to extinguish the fire as neighbours rush in from surrounding houses to help. The footage captures the escalating danger, the moment of intervention, and the community response that prevented what could have been a catastrophic explosion and total loss of the home.
