Shame on the people in the helo. They could have hovered over the boy and helped scare the croc away instead of just watching and filming.

Kid is lucky, the ‘croc’ didn’t seem too interested.

What was not seen was when the boy got onto the sand spit then dived back in to swim to the other shore and was eaten by a shark. http://www.discovery.com/tv-shows/shark-week/#!/sun-after

Maybe the hovering drifting the film shows or the skid in the edge of the view near the end.

Real question is who threw what in the water and diverted the alligator. More than one flying machines?

The individual filming was standing on a bridge.

Now that makes complete sense. Thanks, I’m sure you are right. The background noises were a lot more like traffic than a hovering helicopter.
