Boy, do we love Dick!
No, srsly, we’re a HUGE fan!!
Things got hot under the collar for Dick Van Dyke on Monday when his sweet Jaguar burst into flames on an El Lay freeway, but the film and TV legend didn’t sweat it!
Well, literally speaking, he probably did perspire — BECAUSE FIRES ARE HOT — but in the figurative sense our main man was cooler than the other side of the pillow!
The 87-year-old actor placed a patient call to 911, allowed himself to be rescued by a heroic bystander, & even made sure he Vine-d the whole experience!!!
Even better, he later posted a several HIGHlarious comments on Twitter!!
Trying to recoup lost funds, he joked:
Used Jag for sale REAL CHEAP!! pic.twitter.com/SpQMsg3s2O

Then Dick threw us a curve ball and did something we never expected; he tweeted out a limerick!
It read:
I once drove a car that could fly I had never driven so high But, I recently found Even back on the ground U still can be left high and dry
