A complete stranger has saved a young woman from a real life 'horror story' after she found herself stranded in the middle of the Australian outback.
Emma Collishaw, from Clare, in the Shire of Burdekin, in Queensland, said her 'faith in humanity has been restored' after a very generous truck driver went above and beyond to help her in her hour of need.
Ms Collishaw, originally from Liverpool in the UK, was driving in the outback when her car tyre suddenly blew - leaving her stuck in 40C (104F) heat, with no phone signal, and hours away from any sign of civilisation.

After trying and failing to change the tyre herself, of which Ms Collishaw admits it took her 'half an hour just to get the hub cap off', she decided to try and flag down a passer-by.
And thankfully for Ms Collishaw, a very generous truck driver spotted her at the side of the rode and decided to help.
Taking to her social media page to give her saviour 'recognition for all he had done', she explained how the man, Jason Freyling, went out of his way to help.
She wrote: 'Not only did he help change my tyre whilst supplying me with cold drinks.

Ms Collishaw (pictured) said Mr Freyling paid for new tyres, made sure she had something to eat and paid for a motel room for the night
'He then offered, once we got to a town; to pay for new tyres for my car, made sure I had something for dinner and he paid for me to have a room for the night at a motel,' she wrote.
In addition to his already evident kindness, Mr Freyling then paid for enough fuel to cover the next leg of Ms Collishaw's journey.
And it appeared that Mr Freyling, who was driving a road train at the time, wanted nothing in return for his kindness - not even a 'carton of beer' as a thank you.
According to Ms Collishaw, Mr Freyling simply got back in his truck and went on his way after making sure she was back to safety.
She finished her lengthy post, which has already amassed more than 2,000 likes, by stating: 'There are still good people in the world.'
Ms Collishaw said that while she knows how to change a tyre (pictured), the wheel nuts were on extremely tight
Mr Freyling fixed the tyre (pictured) and wouldn't accept anything in return, including a 'carton of beer'
'No words for his generosity... Definitely one of them stories I'm going to be telling when I'm old and grey,' she added.
However, despite the well-meaning post, Ms Collishaw faced some backlash from users who couldn't comprehend why she'd drive through the outback without knowing how to change a tyre.
In response to the comments she wrote: 'Of course I know how to change a tyre, the wheel nuts were on extremely tight.
Ms Collishaw (pictured) defended herself on Facebook and said she had everything she needs to survive the outback
'I think you'd be silly to turn down help of someone who clearly has more experience on the road.
'I have driven the outback a few times now and had what I needed to survive if worst ever come to worst,' she added.
Daily Mail Australia has contacted Ms Collishaw for comment.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
