A Canadian man was able to evade attacking turkeys by getting into a stranger's car! Whatever it takes to be safe, this stranger is like a hero!

Talk about being at the right place at the right time. It's a good thing this person was driving by when they did. There were other cars in the area but they didn't seem ready to help or ready to welcome the stranger into their car. Good on this person for recognizing the person in distress and helping them escape the turkeys. They didn't have to do it but they're now a Good Samaritan for making the right decision. Check out the viral video shared by CBC News Ottawa and CBC News on YouTube below.

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
