Teenager Left Hanging By Broken Leg On Power Line After Car Crash Explains The Scariest Part Of The Accident

Kennedy Littledike, 19, was left dangling 30 feet in the air for about an hour, waiting to be rescued.

This happened after she lost control of her car and crashed into a power pole in Idaho, USA.

She remembered feeling like she was "drowning in her own blood," which was pouring from the severe injuries to her arm and leg.

A worried crowd gathered below during the incident on May 22, 2021.

The car flipped and rolled, throwing Kennedy and her two friends out of the vehicle.

One friend was knocked unconscious, while the other bled heavily from shattered vertebrae and broken bones.

Kennedy, however, was flung 30 feet into the air and landed on the power line.

Surprisingly, she believes this ultimately saved her life.

You might wonder why she would be thankful for ending up on a power line.

Incredibly, the main artery in her leg was pinched off by the wire, and the main artery in her arm was cauterized when she was electrocuted by the line.

This essentially stopped her from bleeding to death.

The young woman was eventually rescued from the wire and taken to the hospital, where she was put in a medical coma.

Doctors had to amputate her leg, and she also experienced partial paralysis in one arm.

Initially, Kennedy worried she would never find love again due to her injuries.

But she is now in the "happiest relationship" with her boyfriend, whom she met last year.

The brave 19-year-old has had more than 21 surgeries and has made significant strides in her recovery.

She has built up a large following on social media by sharing her story and inspiring others.

Since getting a prosthetic leg, Kennedy has embraced life anew.

She frequently shares photos of herself enjoying activities like skiing, rock climbing, and mountain biking, proving she can do anything she sets her mind to.

In a YouTube video discussing the traumatic accident, Kennedy revealed what the "scariest part" of the whole ordeal was.

She explained: "The scariest part was definitely waking up on the wire, because I'm not supposed to be there...so I don't know why I'm there.

"So I was confused and everyone was just looking at me and not getting me down. And trying to like stay alive, because I remember I knew if I cried, that was it for me," she recalled.

"I've never been a big crier, I hate crying, I just feel weak. So I knew if I started crying, I would be done. I knew if I cried, that would have been it for me."

Kennedy remembered the Good Samaritans who came upon the dramatic scene, holding a white tarp underneath her in case she fell.

But she "didn't understand" what they were doing at the time.

She continued: "I was like, 'Can you guys just come and get me?' I was confused why they were all just looking at me and not helping me," she explained.

"So a lot of confusion, scared, yeah I don't know. It was interesting."

Kennedy said she has flashbacks when she sees the flashing lights or hears the sirens of emergency vehicles. 

She added that she "hates" them.

"Sometimes those almost bring me to tears because it just makes me sick," she said.

"When I hit about 60 mph and higher, I start to freak out. That gives me flashbacks."
