The crocodile was understandably pretty angry though, and lashed out, leaving Harry to jump out of its way just in the nick of time.

โ€œHarry got completely involved in the action despite it being very dangerous,โ€ the onlooker explained.

Harry has been a massive help on various conservation trips.

He continued: โ€œThe man has balls! The whole time youโ€™re thinking how you could get bitten as the croc was not tranquillised and he could seriously hurt you at any stage.

โ€œBut Harry just got stuck in, helped tie it up and bring it into shore.

Witnesses say the group worked together to remove the hook, with someone eventually having to saw it off before they let the creature wander back to the water.

It was THIS BIG!

One of the rescuers says that all those present couldnโ€™t believe how gung-ho Harry had been.
