Randy Joe Scheller rescued W. D. Goodner following an explosion, Frederick, Oklahoma, July 9, 1980. When Goodner, 66, attempted to start his truck while inside his garage, a violent explosion occurred, setting fire to the truck and another vehicle beside it. Scheller, 21, farmer, ran between the burning vehicles, opened the truck’s door, and with some difficulty removed Goodner, who had sustained extensive burns. Only minutes after Scheller had taken Goodner outside, the truck’s gasoline tank exploded and flames completely engulfed the garage. Goodner recovered after being hospitalized. Scheller’s burns were minor. 57666-6558
