A drunk Australian is lucky to be alive after trying to ride a 16ft crocodile.
The 36-year-old had just been kicked out of a pub when he decided to seek more entertainment in the crocodile enclosure at Broome zoo.
After failing to arouse the interest of the 1,800lb beast with offers of a bottle of beer, he opted to climb onto the saltwater crocodile’s back.
“He was intoxicated, and silly,” Sgt Roger Haynes told thewest.com.au website.
“Not too many people escape from between the jaws of a five-metre crocodile…they are not renowned for letting people go.
“For an unknown reason, the crocodile has let him go and he’s managed to scale the fence and exit the park.
“He made his way back to the nearby tavern to get help.”
The owner of the local pub said the man returned to the bar “with pieces of his body missing”
