With a second chance at life, they're now hoping to thank two Good Samaritans whose voices they say sounded like a clarion call after that violent crash.

Hernandez said she freaked out because she was facing oncoming traffic. Lopez worried about her and others.

"It’s a much larger vehicle than most and I was worried about hurting someone else as well. The last thing I remember is looking at my girlfriend and realizing it's probably it for both of us."Though Hernandez says her back hurts the most, she and Lopez took pictures soon after, showing the near-death experience they survived.

With a second chance at life, they're now hoping to thank two Good Samaritans whose voices they say sounded like a clarion call after that violent crash.When Lopez’s truck finally came to a rest after tumbling down the hill, Hernandez was left suspended midair in her seat belt."My concern is we ripped the fuel tank open or something here. We survived the crash itself just to have the fuel ignite or something," Lopez said.

The truck didn’t go up in flames, but the couple said the man who helped pull Hernandez from the passenger seat didn't know that, yet took the risk anyway."She asked me where were you guys going, and I said to the movies, and she said you look really nice. And I'm like thank you and I’m all muddy. But she was just trying to make sure I was okay. That in itself was enough. Being a real person is all I needed.
