Four-year-old hero, Jacob Onion made his television debut yesterday to talk about the moment he saved his mum’s life.
Jacob found his mum, Gemma collapsed in their home and when he couldn’t wake her, he called 999.
Appearing on This Morning, hosts Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield were excited to hear all about how brave the little boy was, but Jacob had his own ideas.

While Holly and Philip tried their best to chat to the little boy about his brave deed, he got a little distracted by the view from the studio.
Running to the window to gaze at the boats passing by, Holly was left to interview Gemma alone while Philip and Jacob excitedly watching the goings on in the River Thames.

And while it may not have been the segment producers had hoped for, viewers took to social media to share their delight.
