Man saved from croc shot in error
By Phil Mercer
BBC News, Sydney The crocodile seized the man's arm and shook him
A man has been accidentally shot by a rescuer who was trying to free him from the jaws of a crocodile in northern Australia.

The victim, in his late 20s, was attacked by the reptile near a popular tourist spot on the Mary River south-east of Darwin.

He was flown to hospital by helicopter for emergency surgery for bite and bullet wounds.

Or, you know. The guy is standing there with a gun, thinking "I've never shot someone before...hmm...and that guy looks pretty f*cked already" "This is for that time we went paintballing..."

But yeah, that really sucks. I bet he was hopping mad afterwards...:rolleyes:

[Cartman's house. A television is heard. The screen shows an Australian crocodile hunter narrating his adventures as a woman pilots his boat down a river.]
Aussie: As we steer our boat down [the boys are on the sofa looking at TV], looking for these dangerous predators… Boy, there's a king croc right here. [it slips into the water] He must be four meters; 12, 13 feet long at least. [it looks up at him] This croc has enough power in its jaws to rip my head right off.
Kenny: (Oh, no!) [tightens his hood up]
Aussie: I've got to be careful. So, what I'm gonna do is sneak up on it and jam my thumb in its butthole.
Stan: Holy crap. dude!
Aussie: If I get bit out here, I'm 200 kilometers from the nearest hospital: I'd better be real careful jamming my thumb in its butthole. [jumps in and grabs the crocodiile] Oh, boy, it's pissed off now.
Kyle: Go, dude, go! [excited, the boys jump on the sofa]
Aussie: I'm gonna jam my thumb it its butthole now! This should really piss it off! [reaches down with his left thumb to do it. The croc jumps up in pain and drops] Oh, yeah, that piossed it off, all right! [the boys cheer] I've gotta be careful!
Stan: This guy rules!
Kenny: (He actually killed it!)
Cartman: I told you guys.
Aussie: [with left arm now bandaged and in a sling] Well! That was quite an angry croc! But I managed to escape with only a few bruises and a shattered left testicle. Next week we'll look for more of these beautiful creatures, so we can learn more about them by pissing them off immensely. Thanks for watching.
Kyle: [to Stan] Dude! Let's go look for crocodiles!
Stan: Yeah! [the four of them hop to the floor and walk out the front door.]
