A few years ago i was in the Kruger park( game reserve) and heard a story about one of the game wardens who was out by one of the rivers there, a crocodile lauched itself at him and although he fought it dragged him underwater(they often drown their victims).he managed to hold his breath and keep his wits about him , when it dragged him into its lair. (An underwater tunnel to a hollowed out"cave" above the waterline.)There amongst the rotting corpses and fetid air he regained his strength , drew his knife and in the darkness launched himself at this croc.They fought, where he had assumed he wounded it badly , and managed to get out the tunnel, and to the surface, he needed many stitches and surgery, but i do think it is one of the most horrific scenarios and story of bravery i have heard.
