A boy "died twice" before being saved by a 16-year-old who learned his first aid with the Scouts. Isaac Toon carried out CPR on the youngster for around 30 minutes after he took ill at a popular beauty spot.
He stepped in after seeing the incident unfold as he relaxed with friends at Sparth Reservoir in Marsden, Huddersfield. And after putting him in the recovery position he drew on his skills learned as a Scout to save the boy who was aged around 13-14.
Despite the boy stopping breathing twice, Isaac kept his cool while they waited for emergency services to arrive. Now he has been praised for his determination and hailed "a hero".
