BRITISH hero Edward Courage was yesterday undergoing surgery after he broke several bones saving two brothers from a fatal helicopter crash.
Three people died when the stricken aircraft slid off the top of a mountain in the Swiss Alps.
But quick-thinking Edward, a member of the Courage brewery family and thought to be in his seventies, saved Ted and Guy Hutchings also believed to be from the UK - by pushing them out of the helicopter as it plummeted 1,640 feet.
After surviving that, Edward is then believed to have fallen another 100ft into a crevasse.
