When the Montélimar firefighters, a clearing rescue team, the Montélimar Smur and a nurse arrived on site, only the victim's head was free. The emergency services took over from the victim's colleagues. This significant deployment of resources allowed the sixty-year-old to save his life.
He quickly regained consciousness and his vital prognosis did not appear to be in jeopardy. Seriously injured, emergency services then transported him to the Montélimar hospital center.
