An animal-lover has filmed himself collecting iguanas that have frozen and fallen out of palm trees due to Storm Elliott blasting Florida.

Brendain Denuyl, 29, filmed himself with the iguanas in his arms in Pembroke Pines, South Florida, as they sezed up during the killer cold snap.

Iguanas are naturally cold-blooded and rely on heat from the sun and their surroundings. When temperatures drop below 10C they become immobile.

Brendan, who works as a taxidermist, said he was out fishing on Christmas night, which happened to be the coldest night of the year.
