I am afraid of crocodiles and alligators. I remember watching Steve Irwin for the first time and I thought he was plain crazy. Later I got to like him a lot, he was a legend, was sad he had to die and leave a wife and 2 kids behind.
Oh yeah, I do remember watching some alligator wrestling at the country fair near my home in USA. Completely crazy. The presenter was standing with a loaded gun. The performer did an interesting routine where he tied the gator's mouth shut by having the jaws closed and held under his chin while he tied them shut. It is said that's what the Native Americans did.
Wyl ek skrikkerig is vir krokkedille, is ek nogals bang vir bere. Bere kan vinniger as 'n mens hardloop, en boonop kan hulle boomklim en swem! Hoe vlug jy van so 'n ding?! Nog banger is ek vir verduiwelse swartmambas -- nes bere is hulle vinniger as ons, kan boomklim en swem, maar is boonop nog aggresief ook!
Wou nog die video klaar kyk, maar het toe eers met my piranhas hier buite in my visdammetjie gaan speel! :) :) :)

ReplyDelete@BiB,
ReplyDeleteJa, ons "boere" het mos leeus wat rondloop op ons agterplaas; wat is 'n krokkedilletjie of visdammetjie met pranhas.
@Christine,
Yeah, a pity about Steve Irwin.
Jy's reg, dit is sekerlik uniek...and totally nuts too.
