"I asked God to help me. Give me one more holler," said Clemmons.

He was stuck there for an hour and a half and just when he was about to give up, 9-year-old Malachi Coffey finally heard his call for help.

Malachi used a jack to get the car off Clemmons before he ran for help. When asked how he knew what to do, Malachi explained that he learned how to use a jack from his uncle.

Clemmons is recovering from some broken ribs and a fractured pelvis.
