‘I was scared. I was jumping asking, ‘What to do? What to do? I didn’t know what to do?,’ the high schooler admitted.
‘I immediately jumped to back of the truck and tried to get it up enough so I can get him out.’
Matt said that the pair have worked on the vehicle many times before with no issues to cause alarm.

‘I couldn’t get a good angle, so I slid my body underneath the truck and was hitting it,’ he told the news outlet. ‘The second it popped off, the truck fell.’
Wilkson said their home surveillance video captured the dramatic scene where he actually saw his boy lift the truck high enough to free him.
