A 15-year-old Michigan boy has no idea how he was able to lift a 2,000-pound Buick so his grandfather could escape from underneath. Austin Smith was working on the 1991 Buick with his grandfather, Ernest “Papa Ernie” Monhollen, at his grandparents’ Ida Township home Saturday when the car fell from the cinder blocks holding it up and trapped Monhollen underneath. Smith said he instinctively grabbed the front end of the 2,000-pound car and was able to lift it enough for his grandfather to get out. Monhollen was treated for a serious cut to his face, fractured ribs and a fractured eye socket.
