They paddled unharmed to safety...I would guess they paddled RAPIDLY to safety. I don't know if the crocs there tend to hunt singly or in groups. Too bad about their companion, but there nothing they could do.

Never go kayaking while in denial.

Reminds me of the guy with the grizzly bears that ended up as a snack for one bear.

Timothy Treadwell. I’m surprised I liked the movie so much.

Saw an australian movie on netflix last week about three people who hired a small fishing boat to fish in the mangrove swamps. A croc tipped over the boat and ......well I will not give out the details but it was an amazing experience they all had. The movie is called Black Water, sort of like Jaws only with crocs and it was a true story.

Or the two hikers who come around a corner and meet a bear face to face.
They both take off like a bat out of hades, get about 30 yards and one stops to lace up his sneakers.
His buddy says, “Come on, you won’t be able to outrun that bear”.
He says “I realize that. Not the bear I am trying to keep ahead of”.

Warner Herzog directed that. It was of course a weird documentary type thing, but I think it was good too. I can’t believe the guy had a girl, but I reckon he did. I mean, could the guy act any more gay? But I reckon he was just one of these fem-men who found the right type.
What do you think about not airing the actual audio of the fatal attack?

I don't care if you're Dr. Doolittle, you do NOT wade into the belly of the beast as though it's the jungle ride at Disney World.
