Drunk Australian Man Bitten By Fatso The Crocodile After Trying To Sit On Its Back

The unidentified 36 year old male was kicked out of a pub for being too drunk. Instead of stumbling home or taking a taxi, the man decided to scale the barbed wire fence of nearby Broome Crocodile Park, so he could pet Fatso, a saltwater crocodile.
When the man approached the 1,800 pound, 16 foot crocodile, he decided jump on its back and ride it like a horse. Sensing danger, the crocodile spun around and bit the man on the right leg, causing deep lacerations. Eventually, the animal released its hold, and the man was able to escape back over the fence. The injured man somehow made his way back to the pub where he was able to get help for his injures.
The parks owner, Malcolm Douglas, decided not to press charges on the man as he recovers at Broome Regional Hospital for severe lacerations on his right leg.
It's amazing how this guy jumped a bared wire fence and then tried to ride the back one of the biggest and deadliest reptiles all while extremely intoxicated. It is truly amazing.
This guy is lucky to have made it out alive. Saltwater crocodiles are one of the largest reptiles and could crush a man with one bite.
