looks like there were two people in the car judging by the skull in the front and then the body hanging out the back?

Unless these bystanders had a fully charged firehose, some hydraulic extrication gear, and complete 'personal protective gear, nothing can be done

i get you. and you are probably right. who knows what happened before it was filmed. maybe someone tried, but no one was even near it attempting to help. watching it on here made me feel helpless like i wanted to jump thru the screen and save the woman myself. poor lady.

saying what should have happened is a way of keeping yourself busy as you watch helplessly

Beside the fact if you would rescue her yes or no, I can say you as professional, at this point you cant grab her with you hands.

The skin would literally fall of, even with rescue gloves its sometimes to slippery to hold anyone with such injury.

If the fire is like this I would recommend not to extinguish with water because the steam will cause more damage.

Recording the scene is a much more productive way to keep yourself busy. Oh, I forgot, that isn't "moral".

Well, that's Brazil. If she had survived, she'd have been murdered by someone next week

She was fucked either way.

It'd be nice to know you wouldn't get in trouble for a mercy headshot in this type of situation, but I'm sure you'd get all sorts of fucked over for doing it. Which is pretty sad that you'd have to even second think that even if you had a gun, because she had to suffer like that due to some legal bullshit. I mean, you can put down a horse with a bullet over a broken leg and everyone is cool with it. A person burning beyond reasonable help? Nope, you gotta roast.

Agree 100%. A mercy headshot would have been the most moral thing you could do.

There was no chance of saving her in that case, her left leg is trapped against the B-pillar by the driver's seat, and I suspect looking at the level of fire damage to that vehicle that it went up in flames very quickly due to fuel still being pumped out of a ruptured fuel line by a fuel pump that didn't shut off in the crash...

Most of these countries really need to make vehicle safety up to par levels. In the USA we dont see a lot of these type crashes nowadays. People are surviving much more often that 20 years ago. The rest of the world needs to follow suit.
