A couple is counting their blessings after they walked away from a massive power pole impaling their car while driving on Marginal Way Friday.
It started when one pole fell, then a chain reaction of poles tumbled down around them.
The fact that the Cooks’ are sitting at home safe, is nothing short of a miracle.
“It’s really hard, you kind of think someone was looking out for you,” survivor Tom Cook said. “If I would see that car as a bystander or someone looking at it, I’m saying, ‘People died in that car,’ and the fact that we didn’t amazes me.” Just a day ago, on Friday, they were trapped under the weight of a massive power pole that crashed on top of their car, barely missing them.
They walked away with a few bruises and scars. Tom Cook has five stitches.
