The 111kg Ammonitoceras was discovered by Jack Wonfor of Wight Coast Fossils on a beach in Chale.
It is nearly 18 stone in weight and 115 million years old.
With the aid of Theo Vickers, Jack was able to remove it from a rock and carry it the entire way up Whale Chine while concealing it in his pack.
The remainder of the fossil can then be seen by prying it off of the surrounding rock.
