A Dublin man who has been homeless for decades has been left with life-changing injuries after saving a man's life four years ago.
Christopher Corr, 49, was left with a broken back in four places, a ruptured spinal cord and a broken hand after his brave actions brought the man to safety. The horrendous accident happened when he heard a cry for help from a building site beside Christchurch and went to see what was happening.
After reaching down to save a man who was stuck on railings, he ended up falling and the man also fell on top of him, leaving him with the life-changing injuries. After spending the last several years using a wheelchair to move around, he only had his first physiotherapy session on February 6 this year.
