Prince William may be the rescue pilot, but Prince Harry is being hailed as a hero after rushing to the aid of a rival polo player during a match that took place on his trip to Brazil last month.
Harry was the first to react when US businessman Bash Kazi dramatically fell off his horse, knocking himself unconscious following a collision during the charity polo match.
Harry leapt off his horse, immediately placing Mr Kazi into the recovery position. The British Red Cross say Harry’s quick thinking may have saved the man’s life.
Mr Kazi has since recovered from the fall telling the Washington Post Harry is ‘such a gentleman’. “Prince Harry was the first one off his horse, doing the right thing, turning me over to make sure I regained consciousness,” he said.
Flick through the pictures, then see the video of Harry helping Mr Kazi.
