Three Gordon County sheriff's deputies are being called heroes tonight, after saving the life of a man in a burning car. And its all caught on a troopers dashcam.

The crash happened early this morning on I-75 near exit 317. A passerby called police about a bad accident there.

Meanwhile, the car is on fire and 56 year-old Dan Gloth of Cartersville is trapped inside.

Deputies swarm on the scene and try to get him out, despite several explosions that light up the pre-dawn darkness.

Finally Gloth is extracted and airlifted to a hospital in Tennessee.
