YET ANOTHER REASON NOT TO HANDLE REPTILES

An experienced South African reptile handler nearly lost his genitals after a massive 15-foot crocodile bit him between the legs in a horror attack that was caught on camera by tourists

When you're described as an "experienced" reptile handler, there may be a good story to be told, but it's when you're a "legendary" reptile handler that you've truly made the grade.

It's always the last place you look, right?

Good judgement comes from experience, experience comes from bad judgement.

Note to self--never try to smuggle large crocodiles in your shorts. Doesn't end well, and Customs looks for such things.

Then again, if he was so experienced, why did he dress for the beach rather than with protective gear?

Skipped the foreplay.

Now I don't feel so unfortunate.

In my defense, I thought it was a python.

Darwin contest winner?

As a riff on Tony Bennett's famous song about San Francisco and his heart - "I left my genitals in South Africa."

What kind of "experienced reptile handler" pokes a "massive 15-foot beast ... with a stick"? He's clearly more experienced now ...

What a crock!
