A heroic group of youngsters pulled an 11-month-old baby and a young couple from a car after it flipped on its side.
The photo was taken by a bystander and shows the men on top of the black car after the crash on a residential road in Kent.
It shows the group rescuing those inside the car as well as a man and his 11-month-old son, who had been dragged from the wreckage by those who rushed to help.
The mother of the baby was also rescued from the car through the passenger side of the vehicle.
Robert Winstanley took the picture after the accident on Sturry Road, Canterbury, as he was walking to a supermarket at about 5pm yesterday.
He said: ‘Just as I was coming to the Esso garage, I saw all of these youngsters, about 100 yards away, rush into the road.
‘As I got closer, I could see a car had flipped onto its side, and some of them were standing on the roof trying to reach those trapped inside.’
Mr Winstanley says the group – believed to be aged in their late teens – pulled the father and baby from the car before rescuing the mother.

He added: ‘I spoke to her while they were waiting for an ambulance to arrive.
‘She was understandably in shock and crying, but they were all unhurt.’
Mr Winstanley described those who stepped in to help as ‘heroes’ who had put themselves at risk.
He said: ‘It was really heartening to see, especially given what is often said about young people.
‘The car could have turned into a fireball at any minute.
‘After everyone was out of the vehicle, they were all shaking each other’s hands and high-fiving each other.’
An off-duty police officer managed traffic until emergency crews arrived.
The road was blocked in both directions while the scene was made safe and the vehicle was recovered.
