A Young Man's Final Moments Are Captured On His Cellphone

Daniel Denz was an outgoing and talented young artist with big dreams and an even bigger imagination.

In April 2017, the 22-year-old hugged his mom Nancy goodbye and headed to work. But just one hour later, Nancy learned her oldest son was in a terrible car accident. Life changed in a confusing and gut-wrenching instant.

All Nancy knew was that Daniel somehow lost control of the car before it rolled over the embankment and crashed into a ravine. Witnesses hurried to try to save him, but Daniel had quickly passed away.

The cause of the accident was initially unclear to investigators, but then a stranger noticed an open cell phone lying on the freeway.

It was Daniel’s phone, and the discovery they made right there on the screen helped piece together the young man’s final moments.

Now, Nancy has a dire warning for anyone willing to listen. She’s hoping her son’s tragic story will help save lives.
