While recalling the Portuguese's heroic act, co-passenger Susanna Lawson told "Bruno went to the loo at the back of the plane during the flight. (We) suddenly heard a shout for assistance which those within hearing distance looked back, including us as we were toward the back.
"Members of the crew rushed to the back to help. There was a spare seat at the back which Bruno helped the gentleman to sit down on. He stayed at the back with them and made sure he was OK. It might have been about 5-10 minutes and then he made his way back to his seat but again very unassuming. He wasn’t looking for any attention on himself."

It has been a hectic few days for the 30-year-old, who has played four matches across all competitions for the Red Devils in less than two weeks. United have experienced a revival since Erik ten Hag's departure as Ruud van Nistelrooy guided the team to three wins and a draw during his brief spell as interim coach.
