Man delivers his baby son - thanks to YouTube

May 6 2009 By Lorraine Waddell

A DOTING dad helped to bring his cute baby son into the world after watching an instructional video on YouTube.

Marc Stephens Googled 'how to deliver a baby' just four hours before his wife Jo went into labour and started giving birth at their home in Redruth, Cornwall.

The couple had planned on a home birth but didn't imagine having to do all of the work themselves.

But thankfully cool-headed Marc had swotted up and managed to take control as the baby started to arrive before the ambulance they had called got to the house.
