Nasty way to die

To be attacked by a crocodile is a nasty way to die. This guy had been drinking during his friends birthday party when they decided to swim across the Mary River down in OZ. The river is infested with salt water croc, who can grow to 23 feet long and weigh almost a ton! Plenty of signs along the river say no swimming in river because of the crocs.

But take a dose of stupidity and some booz, and he jumped in. Got halfway across the river when he decided to return. As he did a croc came out of the water and clamped his jaws around him. Pulled him under and drowned him. Witnesses said they saw the croc with the guy in his mouth swimming up river a bit later. Rescuers showed up to search for him, and had to have the police shoot 4 crocs to make it safe for them to search!

I'm sorry this guy lost his life, but its his own fault. He knew better, but now his family has to suffer. I feel sorry for them.
