    Have just seen this.Highlights just how frenzied and dangerous this terrorist was. These three men must be up for the George Medal at the very least. Potentially many lives saved by a fire extinguisher, a whale tusk and valour. #LondonBridgepic.twitter.com/HMAP0PYVBE

        The Times is reporting the narwhal tusk wielded as a Pole, working in hospitality at Fishmongers Hall I’ll just leave that there ...

        A Narwal tusk and fire extinguisher...that’s cool thinking under pressure! These men are heroes and deserve to be recognized for saving potentially many lives!

        Use what you have, or even whatever you can find! I don't know what the George awards are, but they certainly seem to be deserving of some type of award.

        Absolute heroes, easy to say you’d do something to take him down but these 3 definitely saved lives and should be recognised for that. Especially the geezer with the Narwhal tusk.

        He's a Polish chef who works at Fishmonger's Hall - the tusk was part of the decor. He's amazing, and the best of who we are. Cannot wait for our EU-hating PM to have to admit an immigrant helped save the day with the most imaginative save ever.

        The question I really want answering is why was he carrying a whale tusk? I mean it’s London Bridge on a Friday afternoon and this guy has a random whale tusk? Also a fire extinguisher? Where did they come from? There’s something very British about that. And yes. Total heroes.

        I found the story. The Narwhale tusk was on the wall at Fishmongers Hall and the guy took it down and rushed outside to tackle the terrorist. Completely mad and completely heroic

        I expect Kahn to soon ban fire extinguishers and tusks. Fantastic job by those three -- definitely heroes.
