When 18-year-old Sam Ray's 5,000 pound truck collapsed on him in an isolated work area in Rutherford County, Tennessee, he knew there wasn't much hope.

Then he heard Siri, the voice-recognition service, activate on his iphone. Siri does what owners tell it to do, so he shouted for it to call 911. Although at first dispatch thought it might be a crank call, dispatcher Christine Lee soon heard Sam yelling in the background. The teen had the sense to yell out his location too.

He suffered broken ribs, a bruised kidney, cuts and concussion but emergency workers were able to rescue him so his crush injuries were treated in time. Sam says he's just thankful to be alive.
