Harry Gregg - North Ireland

1958. Munich Air Disaster.
Harry, who had clambered out of the hole in the fuselage, dragged fellow United players Bobby Charlton, Dennis Viollet and Jackie Blanchflower from the plane. He also pulled from the burning fuselage Vera Lukic, the pregnant wife of a Yugoslav diplomat, and her daughter, Vesna, as well as his badly injured manager.

In January 2008, Harry made an emotional return to Munich Airport. It was the first time that he had returned to Munich and, during the BBC television documentary filming, he met Zoran Lukic, the son of Vera Lukic, who was still in his mother's womb at the time of the disaster.
