Two teenage boys have been hailed heroes after they bravely risked their own lives to stop a man from killing himself. Freddie Corbett and Harley Hollingworth – who are 15 and 16 – jumped onto the tracks at Bolton-upon-Dearne station in South Yorkshire, despite a train being just 45 seconds away. And after managing to save the man’s life – they’re joining us in the studio to share their incredible story.

Good on these brave heroes. Though, incredibly selfish of the man to do that. Possibly giving mental health problems to the boys who would've seen it, and the train driver who would've ran him over. If you're gonna go, do it alone.
Great story and totally heroic, their accent is a bonus ❤
Why have we got 2 woke presenters when we could have 2 right wing black presenters?
These kids are magic! There’s no words. Beautiful souls ❤
Well done lads. Phenomenal story and inspiration.
What incredible young men they are absolute heroes. Hope the man in question is getting the help he needs 😊
These two boys are an inspiration to the present young generation. Even in the Bible Jesus speaking to the religious leaders said to them "I will ask you one thing :Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to evil, to save a life or to destroy?" Now this not about the Sabbath but about the brave actions of these two boys. They done what was good & saved a life. One individual is still alive due to their selfless act. God bless you both. What an inspiration you are. 👍
Went to primary school with freddie, but didnt know him much. When I had spoken to him he seemed nice, but now i know that he's a legend
🙌🙌❤️❤️
big respect
How grown up cos he just hit the nail on the head, not just about him who trying to do it the train driver, passenger's and I bet it affected you too aswell god bless you, ya pair of angels. See if you got a broken leg or arm you can see that, but carnt see someone mind, you don't no what going through there mind. And I no ços grew up with through mum schizophrenia, and had to rip tablets out of hand while she trying to take overdose in front of me
Don't try to be a hero. Plenty of dead British soldiers in both world wars and look how they were repaid.
Good lads good parents really that means they were raised really well and good men in they life
Wow you are 2 amazing lads. Showing such deep compassion for this person. Freddy shows a depth beyond his years.
Boys like these represent positivity and wholesomeness. Love this
Two amazing young men their parents will always be so proud of them…restores faith in human nature ❤
The man may attempt suicide later down the line and get no attention but let’s hope not. I hope he gets the help he needs though. Suicide isn’t talked about enough. It’s insane how one can suffer so much that the only solution they can see is to take their life, which that in itself takes considerable strength too. These boys need a Pride of Britain Award and they need it NOW.❤
proper brave lad… good man!
Legends
Wow, this is incredible and very inspiring. You both are amazing inside and out and honestly, incredible people. To put yourself at risk takes a lot of courage and I’m proud of you.
I would do the same, no one should result to this and no one should fight alone. I feel like mental health should be talked about more. Mental health is just as important as physical health. We should all check up on people, no one knows what somebody is going through. Also, not everyone has someone to turn too. It is heart breaking and wrenching to hear stories where people put themselves at harm. Well done lads
! You done amazing!🙌🏼🙏🏼🌟💫✨❤️💚🧡💙💜💛💗😊
Now that's a strong yorkshire accent 😂
Proper Yorkshire lads
Lovely lads, credit to their parents
What tut did he tut say tut can’t tut work it tut out who cut tut hair can ya put tut subtitles tut on and was the tut train delayed
They should be able to meet Prince William and King Charle’s because they are hero’s 👍🏻
I love Yorkshire and Yorkshire people love to both of them ❤️ from west midlands Staffordshire
I don't know who they are, but I'm proud of them.
Very heroic. He looks about 12 until he speaks.
@yorkdhirelass are you proud of your kinfolk?
Wow this is such a beautiful story of courage and selflessness.
If he really wanted to do it, no one could of stopped him.
