    Re: Bloke's Best Mate

    Interesting story. What worries me is that he actually says "That convinced me the crocodile could be tame." Too many people think their wild animal can be tamed. While he may seem tame to this guy, it would be wise of him to always realize at any moment something could happen. It only takes a second for something to freak them out and bad things happen.

    But I wish him good luck and commend him for saving the crocodiles life.

    THats just awesome. I hope they both live happily without incident. It makes me wonder how intelligent crocs really are after seeing this.

    The guy is NUTS! I really hope nothing happens, but it only takes a split second for things to go wrong.

    I'd really like to see him blink his eyes on command though...

    Interesting. I sure as heck wouldn't be swimming around with crocs (especially that size), but I am amazed at how the croc seems to respond to him.
