THIS is the moment a group of holidaymakers came to the rescue after a Mustang GT sports car got stuck on Burnham-on-Sea beach.
The American muscle car was seen stranded the beach on the evening of Saturday, April 2.
One witness said locals and tourists helped push the car to safety after the driver unsuccessfully tried to free himself.
The witness said: “As they revved the engine, the wheels went deeper into the soft sand.
“The driver and his unimpressed female passenger then tried unsuccessfully to free it by digging away the sand with their hands and pushing it – without any luck.
“A nearby group of people who were walking on the beach came to the rescue.
''Four of them pushed it for several minutes, and the car came free and the driver managed to drive away with a relieved smile.”
“Quite why they were driving a car on the beach there is unclear.”
