Now the latest from the Look North newsroom.

Security at the Humber Bridge is to be reviewed after teenagers

film themselves climbing 500 feet to the top of the tower.

If they fell off from there, we wouldn't be looking

We'd have to recover somebody, and that's the last thing we need.

The tiny patch that could save stroke victims that's

What a dreadful day it's been, but a big improvement on the way for

tomorrow. Join me for the latest. A group of young men

who climbed 500 feet to the top of the Humber Bridge have been

condemned for risking their lives They posted a video on the internet

in which they were seen climbing the supporting cables

without ropes or safety gear. Matthew Bone is at

the Humber tonight. It was for climbers who, earlier

measures round here, because there and climbed right to the top of

are questions of the safety not just of the climbers but people who may

have been passing by underneath. This was more than

just a student prank. This is footage from the top

of the Humber Bridge taken by four so-called Urban Explorers -

and last night posted on social media by

19-year-old Harry Gallagher. Online, he's known as Night Scape,

and he's well-known But critics aren't so impressed,

and see it as a part of a new trend of making money online by taking

extreme videos to attract If they fell off from there,

we wouldn't be looking We'd have to recover somebody,

and that's the last thing we need. There could be somebody genuine

on the river which is in trouble. In a statement, a spokesman

from the Humber Bridge Board said: Today, climbers at Hull's Rockcity

also condemned the stunt, saying that there are better

and safer ways to get Obviously, we are all harnessed up

when we are on the ropes, which does make it really safe,

whereas the daredevils obviously didn't have any harnesses

while they were 500 feet in the air. Going that extra mile to take

pictures of yourself Statistics suggest that it's led

to the deaths of 49 people globally since 2014,

of whom 75% were men and half Humberside Police say they're now

working with the Humber Bridge Board to review security,

but are reminding people just how dangerous taking

this sort of footage is. When it comes to questions of police

action here, we understand that is unlikely because it would depend on

evidence of criminal damage, which we don't believe to have taken

place. It's hard to underestimate just how dangerous this was, not

just for the climbers but for people below. It could have caused a

serious traffic accident on the bridge, or if the climber had fallen

into the water, the emergency services would have been called out

and been unable to attend another emergency at the time.

Matthew, thank you. Sergej Komkov from Hull explores

abandoned buildings which are often He gave me his view of the teenagers

who climbed the bridge. Looking at the video,

I think they looked very young for the age to be experienced

to climb any heights But you do the same sort

of thing, don't you? You go into derelict

buildings, old buildings? I think it's a difference

into going into a derelict building and something called roofing,

because what they have done is roofing, from the word "roof",

so being high up, and urban exploration is more going into sort

of crumbling, abandoned buildings. But you've been into old buildings

like the old Clarence sandmill, where you could have had an accident

or fallen down, and people watching will be saying,

it's just irresponsible. I think I would be the person

to kind of be responsible after that if charges were to be

pressed against me, Do you think about the risks

involved when you are I think it's because we all express

ourselves in one way or another, I record it with my camera,

both the interior and exterior. These guys on the top of the bridge,

would they have got a buzz from it? Yes, I think so, because they do

have obviously their social network page, where they share it,

they get likes. And I think that is kind of

a big push as well to this, because they get thousands

of people following them. Are you worried about getting caught

and being prosecuted? Just finally, what do you say

to those people watching who say that people like yourself and these

lads are being irresponsible, I think that one day their parents

will get a really sad phone call. Sergej, very good

to see you tonight. An ejection seat manufacturer has

denied breaching health and safety regulations following the death

of a Red Arrows pilot. Flight Lieutenant Sean Cunningham

died after being ejected from his aircraft at RAF

Scampton in 2011. This morning, Martin Baker

Aircraft Ltd pleaded not guilty The trial is due to start

in January next year. A woman accused of hitting her

stepdaughter with a hammer has Jennifer Harrison, who's 30 and seen

here in a wheelchair, is accused of hitting the girl

at their home in Bempton. Her partner, Deborah Harrison,

the girl's mother - seen walking - Today, Jennifer told

Hull Crown Court she loved the girl. But the prosecution accused

her of being jealous The NHS in Lincolnshire says

the majority of GP practices in the county are back to normal

following the cyber attack. NHS computers were shut down

by a virus on Friday. Doctors have got back

into clinical systems, but are asking people to be patient

as some are still slow. Council tip workers in Boston

had to call in the bomb squad for a second time,

after World War Two explosives were dumped

by members of the public. A controlled explosion

was needed to get rid of the shells at a recycling centre

in Boston last week. Lincolnshire County Council says

people should call the police if they want to dispose

of ammunition. A tiny patch, like a sticking

plaster, could save the lives of people who have a stroke,

and now a trial of them in Lincolnshire is spreading to

the ambulance service in Yorkshire. Around 40,000 people

in the UK die as a result of a stroke every year,

as our health correspondent, Just like a fire,

it's time to call 999... Every minute counts

when you have a stroke. The faster you act, the more

of the person you save. Now, almost 50 paramedics

in Lincolnshire - like Marc - have been equipped with

a revolutionary new stroke treatment, and it's all

contained in one tiny patch. 5 mg of GTN, life-saving

drug, 39p per patch. Place that onto the shoulder

blade of the patient. They won't feel anything

at all, it will just be as if we were applying

a normal plaster. So the drug will be absorbed

into the skin, and the best way to try and describe it is the artery

as a vessel. If a blood clot gets

trapped in that artery, this medication will allow that

artery to open, it vasodilates, which will hopefully free the clot,

if it's free-moving. The drug GTN which is contained

in these patches is already used to help heart patients,

because it's been shown to help lower blood pressure

and open up blood vessels. And it's hoped the use of these

patches could help double survival A stroke occurs when the blood

supply to part of your brain is cut off, either through a clot,

or a burst blood vessel. Strokes can cause permanent

disability in around And not everyone will survive -

around 1 in 8 will die within 30 days of having a stroke.

For stroke survivors, like Jim Howard, from Hull,

the new treatment offers real hope. Any thing that will help the patient

who's had the stroke before he gets But before this treatment can be

more widely adopted - Marc and other paramedics need

to recruit many more stroke patients to the trial so their recovery can

be monitored over 12 months. Early results, though,

suggest the patches Vicky Johnson,

BBC Look North, Lincoln. What an absolute wash-out it has

been today, but tomorrow However, some uncertainty

about Friday's forecast. There is Thursday's little

ridge there, but Friday, we could well see more rain

pushing up from the south. That rain eventually

clearing out of the way. The sky slowly clearing

from the west, and we will see temperatures around 8 or 9

at the lowest. So, a much better day on Thursday -

that little ridge of high pressure That sunshine lasting

through the afternoon. A bit more cloud,

the risk of one or two showers, The risk of more rain

to come on Friday. showers. But it will be a bit

warmer. Before today, many gardeners were

crying out for rain. Some of the those garden may now be water

logged. And Lincolnshire was one of wettest places with 40 millimetres.

That is nearly a month's worth of rain in 24 hours. Some difficult

travelling conditions. Some parts of north-west England stayed dry. This

was the main rain-maker. It is pulling away. Tomorrow a day

sunshine and showers and that freshing feeling air will filter

into those parts that were muggy today. It was 25 Celsius in Kent. A

different feel, but still pleasant when the sun appears tomorrow. Still

some rain in the east of England. Become light and patchy tonight.

Clearer in the north and west. Still the odd shower in Northern Ireland,

Scotland and Wales and western England. Turning
