FREDERICK, MARYLAND — A Maryland nurse miraculously survived a 75-foot fall after forgetting to mind the gap when she tried to help out at the scene of an accident. <br /> <br />Angela Weir was driving eastbound on the Interstate 70 in the early hours of yesterday when she saw a crash involving a dump truck and a tractor trailer on the other side of the road, WTOP reported. <br /> <br />Good Samaritan Weir got out of her car and started running towards the scene to help. <br /> <br />Thinking there was solid ground between the two lanes, she jumped over a jersey wall and plunged 75-feet into the Monocacy River below. <br /> <br />Weir told the Washington Post she fell for a long time and thought she was going to die. But after hitting the water, she managed to swim 60 feet to shore. <br /> <br />She was treated at the scene and airlifted to the hospital, somehow walking away with minor fractures to her spine and skull. <br /> <br />The drivers of the vehicles in the crash were both taken to the hospital. Their conditions were unknown. <br /> <br />Next time Angela, look before you leap!
