A hero bystander who was inside a nearby historic hall when the London Bridge stabbing unfolded Friday ripped a five-foot Narwhal tusk from the wall to help neutralize the knife-wielding madman, a witness said.
The unidentified man can be seen on footage of the stabbing Friday in London hovering over the suspect with the massive tusk as others attempt to disarm the assailant.

Based on the video, he didnt do much with the tusk. I give him a D, maybe an F, based on the vid here.

I was going to ask if the tusk he ripped off the wall came with the UCS marching band. Thanks for the video. Brings back great memories (especially of Stevie Nicks)!

Just how sad and pathetic is this? People in the UK are so defenseless that the man had to take a whales tusk from a museum to use as a weapon.

I daresay we are witnessing the first time in the history of mankind that a narwhal tusk was used to stop an attacker.
Unless, of course, you count the times the narwhal tusk was still attached to the narwhal and he used it to spear the guys in the whaling boat.

The distinctive tusk is used to tap and stun small prey, facilitating a catch.The sounds just like what happened in London!

I’d bet FAR more on the Brit authorities arresting and prosecuting the narwhal tusk and the fire extinguisher guys for violating the islamist’s rights than I would on England coming to its senses.

I believe you are correct sir.

Is that a narwhal tusk or are you just happy to kill me?
