I know it’s important to have hobbies, but some people just take it too far.
Like Niels Jensen, from Denmark, who climbed on a 650-kilogram crocodile after feeding it a wallaby in a wildlife park in Australia’s Northern Territory.
It’s not the first time that he’s had encounters with dangerous animals, either – like I said, a hobby too far.
NewsAU has more on why – because seriously, why?
Niels Jensen, who claims he’s been dubbed “Danish Crocodile Dundee” by his mates, filmed the death-defying stunt while travelling through a wildlife park east of Darwin.
It’s like National Geographic and Jackass had a baby and it’s this video:
Explain yourself, Niels:
The wildlife management graduate said while it was a thrill, he understood it was risky behaviour.
“After seeing what a crocodile is capable of doing, I don’t think it was dangerous, I know (it was),” Mr Jensen told Caters News Agency.
“Even with a crocodile like this that (is) used to humans, is it a scary feeling sitting on something that could kill you in a fraction of a second.”
Mr Jensen said he had never seen a saltwater crocodile before coming to Australia, where he has been travelling after completing his studies.
What a champion. I’m glad he knows that crocodiles are dangerous now. You’d think the teeth would have been his first clue.
They really are letting anyone into grad school these days.
