Video shows super-hero neighbors rescuing great-grandma from burning home

Dramatic video shows “super-hero” neighbors bursting into a burning home to rescue a sleeping 87-year-old great-grandmother, thanks to her daughter giving them key instructions through her mom’s doorbell camera.Phyllis Day, who has Alzheimer’s disease and hearing issues, was asleep at home in Wigston, England, without her hearing aids last Thursday night when neighbors spotted the flames coming from the back of her house.Her doorbell camera shows some of them then desperately trying to get through her front door and raise the alarm.They start shouting instructions, not realizing they are actually talking to Day’s daughter, Suzanne Wright, who answered her mom’s doorbell cam while in her own home about five miles away.“You need to come out.There’s a fire,” a man tells Wright, thinking she’s inside the home.

“In the back of your house — you need to come out now!”Wright explains that it is her mother’s house — and quickly directs them to a key safe hidden by the back gate, giving them the code to get in.The group manages to get the door open, and two men race inside.The same two are then seen leading the great-grandmother out of the house as the fire department arrives.“It was just pure luck that her neighbours saw the flames and dashed round to help,” Wright told SWNS after the frightening ordeal.Wright, who takes care of her aging mother full-time, was watching the footage from her mom’s doorbell live as she and her husband rushed there.

“At one point I lost visual and could just hear shouting and screaming, it was terrifying,” she said.“Luckily it came back on and I could see Mom being led by the arm outside.”Pav Sarpal, 28, and Stephan Smart, 44, the two neighbors who fearlessly ran in to get Day, recalled being met with heavy smoke as soon as they entered the home.“It’s the worst thing I’ve ever seen in my life, all I could see were flames and smoke and it was getting worse by the second,” Sarpal told SWNS.“...
