'Wonder woman' pushes truck up snowy hill, earns free milk for a year
Milk demand recovering after coronavirus pandemic lows
The demand for milk is surging. FOX Business' Jeff Flock with more.
This woman clearly drank her milk growing up.
A Scottish mother-of-three wasn’t going to let a little snow stop a shipment of milk from reaching its destination. The good deed paid off, because after footage of the woman pushing the truck up a hill hit the internet, she was awarded a year’s supply of free milk.
A large snowstorm recently struck the Scottish town of Cowdenbeath, causing slick roads and traffic problems, The Sun reports. Charlene Leslie says she was headed to the store when she noticed a truck full of milk struggling to summit a hill.

"I would never just stand by when I see someone in trouble," she told the outlet. "I suppose what I did was really dangerous, but thankfully the Graham’s truck got safely up the hill. In the moment I wasn't really thinking about me, I just wanted to help."
"A load of people were trying to push a car up the hill when I noticed the Graham’s truck coming behind it. Its front wheels were spinning, and it was stuck from all the snow," she recalled. "My neighbor appeared, so I asked her to watch the kids and the dog while I pushed it from the back. Eventually, it made it safely to the top."
Charlene Leslie has since been awarded a year’s supply of free milk after lending a helping hand. (SWNS)
