I don't think people have the same reaction when  saw a 375-pound male bear were drowning. This man swam into the water to rescue it. What a real hero!!

WILDLIFE officer Adam Warwick stripped off and jumped into the sea to save the bear who bolted into the water after being hit by a tranquiliser dart.

The 26-stone black bear had bolted into the water in fright after being shot with a tranquilliser dart when it was found roaming a Florida beachfront neighbourhood.

However, as the paralysing drug took effect, the panicked creature thrashed and flailed in the waves, struggling for survival.   SEE THE AMAZING PICTURES
