A mother and child experienced a close call when a car crashed right into a Methuen, Massachusetts storefront Sunday.
The two were inside Piro's Bakery when the vehicle came flying into the building.
It knocked over a display case, which knocked down the little boy.
"It was unbelievable, it felt like a movie," said Amanda LaFlamme.
Surveillance video shows how in just a matter of seconds, she pushed the display case off her son and picked him up out of the rubble.
"Everybody asked me 'What did you do?' and I said 'I don't know, I just went and picked him up'," she added, "that's the mother instinct."
No one was injured in the crash.
