Paul McCartney saved my life after he rallied crowd to help me when I collapsed during his Glastonbury set
A PAUL McCartney superfan has claimed he saved her life — by rallying crowds to help when she collapsed watching him at Glastonbury.
Lisa Morris, 50, passed out with hypothermia a few songs into his set.
She had spent seven hours standing in the cold at the front of the festival’s Pyramid Stage waiting to see the Beatles legend.
Nearly four million watching on TV saw Macca, 80, stop the show when he realised someone was in trouble and ask: “What’s going on over there?”
He gestured bystanders to help, adding: “Is there something happening there? If so, let’s tend to it. Come on.”

A moment later he added: “It’s okay we sorted it we sorted it. There you go, mate!”
He then joked: “It wasn’t that solo I played? All right.”
On-site medical staff took NHS nurse Lisa to the hospital tent where she spent the rest of the evening.
Doctors told Lisa, who was wearing a Macca T-shirt and a Sgt Pepper denim jacket, that her temperature was a dangerous 35C, 2C below normal.
Lisa, who lives with husband Rob in Bath, Somerset, told The Sun: “Macca made my life and now he saved it too.”
The mum of one, who developed a love of McCartney’s music as a young girl, added: “I’ve been a Macca fan since I can remember. He’s my hero and there was no way I was going to miss him.
“I made sure I got the best spot by the stage and waited seven hours for him to come on.
“It was pretty chilly and by then my hands were numb.
“All of a sudden I just blacked out. It wasn’t far into the gig. It was all a bit of blur, I felt myself just fading.

“Who knows what could have happened if I’d been left with no help.
“I’m just annoyed at missing the rest of the set but I can take it to the grave that I saw Macca at Glastonbury.”
