Astonishing bravery of boy who risked his life to save baby deer in Bangladesh river by holding it above raging floodwaters
A brave boy fearlessly risked his own life and showed astonishing bravery to save a helpless baby deer from drowning.
The boy, called Belal and believed to be in his early teens, defiantly held the young fawn in one hand above his head as he plunged through the surging river.
During the ordeal onlookers were unsure whether the boy was going to appear again.
When he finally made it to the other side the locals cheered as the deer was reunited with its family.
The incident took place in Noakhali, Bangladesh, when the young fawn became separated from its family during torrential rain and fast-rising floods.
Wildlife photographer Hasibul Wahab captured the brave act while visiting on a photography trip.
He said the Noakhali locals lose a lot of deer during the rainy season and that they have to do all they can to protect them.
He said: 'He was such a brave boy - the river was so full of water and it was high tide so we thought he might drown.
'My friend was even ready to jump into the river to save the boy. But he made it, and when he returned, we thanked the boy.
'There were only five to seven people observe this situation but it was a phenomenal sight.'

The Lord works in mysterious ways.Bless this young man and thank God he is safe.
What courage!
More spectacular and important than Mr. Beiber!
What "earend" says..............
beautiful <3 <3
a brave n beautiful act.....
God bless you young man. Some adults would stand there and watch it drown. you should be praised.
if Mr. Hasibul Wahab is to be known to be a trust worthy person. no disrespect meant. Could he located the hero Belal? If so there will be a reward set up and sent to him. Would need to know what the boy needs. Would not be a lot as I don't have much in spare funds. The power of the universe which I call Great Spirit has taken note of a brave young warrior who will be sent good medicine for his selfless good deed. More others take note of what this boy did to save one of God's creations. The boy knows as most don't we are all related.

Incredibly loving, selfless, courageous and symbolic of the very best a human can be. After seeing such callous disregard for life and brutality of all kinds from people far better off, this young man is the richest of all and gives the greatest gift.
Unbelievable and so beautiful to see someone who cared enough to save the deer and reunited it with its family. The parents should be very proud and honored in having such a son! God bless you all.
The hero of the day!
I wish there were a way to connect with this young man and his family. He has such a good heart. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to give assistance for schooling or whatever if that was a need?
God bless you little man we need more care hearted people like you. I am so proud of you and thank you Jesus for perfecting him. USA
so wish their were more people in this world with heart
Well done young man...... WONDERFUL WONDERFUL rescue...
