BRAVE Scott Meeking was hailed a real-life Spider-Man after twice climbing 40ft up a blazing block of flats to save a little girl and boy.

Neighbour Scott, 19, rescued Kyrann Deeble, two, before returning to another balcony for the lad, five.

He said: Instinct took over. I didnt think about the smoke or fire.

Kyranns aunt Simone Deeble, 19, who passed her to Scott, said: Hes a hero.

Witness Tania Sartori, 27, said: He was like Spider-Man.

Firefighters saved others after the office fitters heroics in Ilford, Essex. But the flats were gutted.
