With 2018 coming to a close, it's common for someone to take inventory of what happened over the last 365 days. There are those moments that we would prefer to forget. There are the moments we fail to recall, which are usually followed by the statement, "Oh yeah, that's right. That happened this year." Then, there will be moments we couldn't possibly erase from our memory, and will stay with us for the rest of our lives.

Chance the Rapper took us all on a trip down 2018 memory lane through his Instagram Stories, which included a moment that probably belongs in that last category. On Easter Sunday (April 1), Chance said he saved someone's life as he was driving to church. "Basically I was driving to church dolo, about to go south on lakeshore and another car drives into the wall in front of me goin like 90 mph comin off the exit," he wrote. "I was the only person out there when it first happened and his car was on fire so I had to break his window take off his seatbelt let his seat back and pull a whole grown man out the car unconscious."

Two people eventually arrived and helped Chance pull the person to safety before they were taken to a nearby hospital. "In reality I never was able to find out if dude was alright so if this yo uncle or something let a n***a kno," he added.

As it turns out, the person did survive:
