I don't suppose you know what makes that possible/challenging? I've never really thought a ton about fresh vs saltwater living for vertebrates with lungs but I'd assume it'd be easier if you get your oxygen from the air rather than the water. I guess its because if you live in it you kinda wind up drinking it?

The place is BEAUTIFUL and I remember always looking into the mangroves trying to find the croc. At that time there was a really large one, but I never got to see it. But I guess I now kind of did, thanks to your video haha. Amazing footage and crazy how you could be in the water for so long. Patience in fact does pay off 😂

It actually supresses the electro magnetic waves emitted from the human body underwater because it could be easily sensed by the crocodile and also sharks. Surprisingly it worked really well.

I used to live near Wakulla Springs in Florida. I remember reading in the local news where a SCUBA diver snuck into the park at night, then cut the fencing from the park swimming section to access the river. Apparently he wanted to see alligators swimming underwater at night. The next day during one of the glass bottom boat tours, bits of his remains were discovered strewn about the bottom of the river.

Still, it was really cool. I never knew crocs were such graceful swimmers. I think this is even more epic then the time you went diving with Bull Sharks. Keep it up, Jonathan!
