"You need to learn how to jump, boo!" Dorsey says on the video when she finds the deer stuck for the second time in a second, narrower fence.
Dorsey returned to Stone Mountain this week, telling WSBTV exactly what happened that day.

Dorsey said during her morning run through the park, she encountered a fawn stuck between bars of a fence after watching other deer gracefully leap over it.
"I was like: 'Is this happening? I'm gonna have to save a doe!' And I look, and then when it moved, I look and was like, 'Dear Lord!'" Dorsey said. "I jump the fence,... I thought: 'You gotta do what you gotta do. I'm gonna have to pull this fence apart.'"

Dorsey used her superhero powers to pry the bars apart, and the little deer ran to safety -- but immediately got stuck between the bars of the next fence.
"What! I gotta do this again?? You are ... my emotions!" Dorsey yelled at her new friend.
Dorsey gritted her teeth and put some more muscle into it. She said the second time was a little tougher but she finally freed the fawn, this time for good.
Now, the rescue is the stuff of superhero legend (well, at least in Atlanta).
"I feel, like, superhuman," Dorsey said. "I did it! This is great! I stood there like, 'Yeah!'"
On Wednesday, Dorsey was wearing a custom shirt with her catchphrase on it: "You need to learn how to jump, boo!"
