A courageous Colorado toddler became an unexpected hero after he braved “the really dark” to save his great-grandmother from a dangerous fall.

Bridger Peabody, 3, was spending a night with his great-grandmother Sharon Lewis last month when she fell walking into their Strasburg house and hit her head on a concrete step.

“We went up to the backyard, dark backyard,” Lewis, aka “GG,” told 9 News Tuesday. “We did really good. Then we got up to the door where I was going to get the keys out. Well, I must have tripped over something just sticking up there.”

Little Bridger recalled the moment in more exacting terms.

“She had her walker, and then she fell on our porch,” the boy said. “She bonked her head, and it popped open!”

Lewis was bleeding badly from her forehead and couldn’t get up, but Bridger kept calm as she tried to yell out to their neighbors.

But nobody could hear her, and she’d left her phone in the car — so she told Bridger he needed to brave the dark of their driveway alone and find it.

“I said, ‘You know what? You’re going to have to go out to the car and get my phone,’” she told 9 News. “He said, ‘It’s too dark, GG.’ I said, ‘I know, but you’re going to have to be brave. Jesus will help you.”

Completely adorable home security footage from Bridger’s journey to the car captured him whispering “Don’t be afraid. Don’t be afraid,” to himself as he clutched a blanket and made his way through the dark to the car, before opening up the driver’s side door and exclaiming with joy when it found it.

“Yay! I did it!” he yelled out to GG, bringing her phone back so she could call for help.

Lewis was soon taken to a nearby hospital, where she was diagnosed with a concussion and given 22 staples in her head.

She says she doesn’t know what she would have done without little Bridger — and that while she thinks of him as a hero, she’s not sure he knows what that word means yet.

“I call him a hero. He goes, ‘No. I’m Bridger.’ He’s not quite sure what a hero is, I think, but he definitely is,” she said.

“He’s just a blessing.”
