Feb. 2 (UPI) -- A Tesla plunged into a fjord in the Norwegian capital, leading to its two occupants being rescued by a float- ing sauna.
The electric vehi- cle drove into the Oslo fjord at the Akershusstranda, an area where ships dock, and video recorded by witnesses shows the driver and a passenger climb- ing on top of the car to stay out of
the frigid water.
The pair ended up being rescued by the crew and guests of one of the city's floating saunas, Oslo police said on social media.
"One of the guests came running and told me a car had landed in the water. I accelerat- ed to full speed in the direction of the people," Nicholay Nordahl, the sauna boat's cap- tain, told VGTV. "With the help of
two guests, we pulled them up. They were able to warm up in the sauna."
Police said the two people did not appear to
be injured.
The car's owner said the Tesla ended up in the water when he accidentally pushed down on the accelerator while he thought the vehicle was in park.
