Yikes. I did not see the driver bail out either before that clip ended! I hope he is ok. I guess "no one was hurt" means he was ok. Have been to that rink for tournaments. It's a crazy visual for sure!

The full length video shows him driving the machine through the dasher board doors & off the ice with the fire still raging. The guy is either Superman or a raving lunatic.

Wonder what was going through his head? If he left it flaming on the ice I guess he'd have ended up with a bunch more work at some point fixing the crater it would leave. Or was he actively trying to save the people in the building from a potentially bigger fire or alarms or sprinkler systems going off or something by getting it out of there? Heroic, oblivious...

I assume he was trying to save the ice. A noble deed was done....hang your hat on that
