As flames erupted inside the shed, Leo switched into what Hyeri called "sports mode" and hurried to escape.
The video shows the unharmed tortoise making a surprisingly swift getaway, as neighbors put out the fire before it could spread.
Hyeri shared the video on TikTok, encouraging others to secure their heat lamps. "This could've ended very differently," she wrote.
Fortunately, super speedster Leo sped away to safety.
