Watch: Man tries to control crocodile with shirt, what happened next will scare you

Social media users got scared after watching the video.

Any interaction with a crocodile, one of the most deadly and feared predators, can end in serious injury or perhaps death. They are among the fastest and most ferocious reptiles, so pray they never come into contact with one.

In a video going viral on social media, an old man is trying to trap a crocodile with the help of a simple cloth which looks like a shirt. The visuals are as bizarre and scary as they read. At first the man appeared confident and skilled at the task of catching the large reptile, but as the video continued, it showed the older man falling uncontrollably to the ground. He tried to retreat and got scared seeing the dangerous attacking moves of the crocodile.

The old man’s hand got stuck in the crocodile’s mouth for a while. The gentleman was able to keep himself safe, as the reptile immediately opened its mouth and released the man. This video serves as an excellent example of why it is not a good idea to interact with wild animals without proper training and support.

Reddit users have seen the shocking video multiple times, yet they are still baffled based on the amount of comments that have been left.

One user commented, “The way he threw on that shirt, I really thought this guy knew what he was doing.”

Another user wrote that “Boy is lucky the super-fast second snap didn’t get his leg or feet! It was too close.”
