Just saw on CNN that Vin Diesel saw a car crash off the road, and assisted the family out of the car just before it was engulfed in flames.

Didn't catch all of the details, but I bet the family was thankful for the help.

Imagine if you knew who Vin Diesel was and you saw him helping you out of a burning car... That would be cool!

Diesel? Fire? Diesel fire?

Eerie...

Anywho, well done that man. Now, if he could just save his skills for a movie worth the price of admission...

lol! i was trying make a joke associating the rumours on the boards about his sexuality with him running after something flamming..... phhtttt!

believe it, or not Reigh, I've yet to see the man act. I've only seen the openning sequence in fast and furious, and even didn't bother with BOILING ROOM. Do you really think he's good? i will admit that this factoid raises my confidence in him. i'm sure many people would have done the same thing, but i seriously had dismissed this dude as a doofus.

Ummmmm...not really as an actor, though he is passable as an action hero if he could find the right material. Bloody good director but he seems to have stopped that all together, which is a shame. Maybe soon, after he gets out of franchise hell.

P.S. He was pretty cool in Pitch Black, but that isb't saying much.

Now if he had only sacrificed himself...the movie world would be a much safer place.

Ah, the mighty Diesel Power. He saves families from car explosions, and not a hint of latex in sight.

Starring Ben Affleck as Diesel Power, Matt Damon as Rock Hard, and special guest cameo by Eric roberts as The Bitch. Rated X for scenes of unlistenable histrionics.

At a theatre near an airport. July 4th weekend.

If it was me I'd be like: "Oh my god help!...Oh nO WAIT! No don't touch me! I'd rather be burned alive then be saved by xXx!" Vin: "Welcome to the xander zone!" Me: "Damn your xander zone! Keep away!"

Sounds like bullshit to me. Diesel saves family from buring car!!! BS.
