Photographer Narrowly Escapes Crocodile Attack

 


A photographer in Costa Rica has narrowly avoided being eaten by a crocodile after his enthusiasm to get the perfect shot put him in harm’s way. The incident, which was recorded by one of his friends and put on YouTube, initially involved the man, known as Antonio, sitting on a river bank close to the creatures and waiting there until they were nearly on top of him.

For good measure he even got his friends to throw pieces of meat towards the reptiles to entice them closer. The photography session nearly ended in tragedy though after Antonio failed to heed the warning of his chums who had spotted the crocodile getting terrifyingly close.

Luckily for the young snapper he was able to detect the creature just as it tried to take a nibble at him. He quickly jumped up and made his way up the bank of the Tarcoles River to the relief of his mates who berated him when he got back to safety.

He will now be left in no doubt about why the location is known as ‘Crocodile Bridge’.
