He had to have his right leg reattached and says its “amazing” to walk again without crutches.

He said: “It’s just great because that was what I have been working for over the last 14 months.

“I’ve been working really hard, extremely hard, and it was amazing.

“They didn’t think I was going to make it because I was so critical.

“I fell so far down, then I rolled down so much, and was stuck in the middle of the valley.

“They all thought that I was going to die until I arrived at the hospital, and that was the moment they thought I might actually survive.”

Imran had been out walking in the Peak District in preparation for a fundraising trek to Kilimanjaro when he fell.
