A man who survived a terrifying crocodile attack when he jumped into its enclosure in Broome on Monday night believed he might die when it closed its jaws over his leg.
Michael Newman, 36, of Perth, denied he was drunk when he scaled the fence at Malcolm Douglas’ crocodile park in Cable Beach and climbed into a pen, hoping to pat and sit on one of the beasts.
He said as the crocodile, “Fatso”, took hold of his leg, he grabbed hold of the fence with both hands.
“I said ‘Artisian, let me go, let me go’ – and he opened his mouth and let me go. It happened so quick,” he said.
