A female gas station attendant in eastern China became a viral sensation after dealing with a burning tricycle in just 12 seconds.
The incident took place in Jiangxi Province on July 9, but a video was only shared online recently.
The attendant, identified as Song Juanjuan, just finished filling a motorbike when the tricycle next in line suddenly burst into flames.

As customers evacuated the area, Song reached for a fire extinguisher and directed the gas to the fire source.
