BEING SAVED BY A REAL PRINCE!



A Fairy Tale Romance and a Hero:

There are heroes, and then there's Prince William (28) who recently flew a RAF Sea King helicopter in North Wales through a storm over a mountain range to reach the stranded victim suffering from chest pains.  He maneuvered the 72 foot bird to a position enabling three crew members to snatch the victim, Greg Watkins and airlift him to a nearby hospital.

Can you imagine someone whispering in your ear, "Prince William's just flown you here."

In the rescued man's own words:
"I didn't know much about what was happening at the time. The winchman helped me out and onto a stretcher and whispered, 'Prince William's just flown you here,' Watkins, a gym worker from Ebbw Vale in South Wales, told the paper. It didn't really sink in until I woke up after my operation. Now I think it's amazing."

"If it wasn't for him and the rest of his crew, I'd be dead. Hearing his helicopter getting nearer and nearer was the best sound that I've ever heard. They saved my life," Watkins added. "He'd probably say he was just doing his job, but to me he and his crew are heroes."
