The proud dad, wrapped in St George’s flag, was on his way to his seat to cheer on 28-year-old Harry.
A fan who filmed the drama told The Sun: “I’ve never seen anything like it.
“If those doors hadn’t opened and the crush had got worse people could easily have died.
“I’ve followed England many times and recognised Harry’s dad caught in the worst of it.
'Heads should roll'
“As soon as the doors burst open the bodies flooded in on top of each other and he was caught on the bottom. It was pandemonium. I ran towards the crush screaming at the yobs still pushing their way in: ‘Get Back you f***ing idiots!
“But they kept coming and innocent, paying fans caught up in it got crushed.
“I still can’t believe that I saw this at Wembley, which is supposed to be the best and safest place to watch a game. Heads should roll over this.”
