  • In a daring cave diving expedition, divers Brad and Vince become the first to unveil the mysteries of Botswana's "Crocodile Labyrinth" - a hidden network of underwater caves inhabited by massive Nile crocodiles. This thrilling expedition takes you deep into the blackness, as they squeeze through narrow tunnels, navigate past slumbering 4-meter predators, and conduct groundbreaking experiments on the crocodiles' senses. Discover how these cold-blooded killers use the caves for food, warmth, and escape routes unseen by humans until now.

    What they didn't mention is that someone discovered that if the water temperature is at or below a certain temperature, the crocs won't attack. They need the warm water to start their hunting instincts. That is why the sun is always low during filming because they start around dawn and have to be finished by about 11am before the water rises above the critical temperature!

    • @JJ-fq4nl

      Your saltwater crocs are way more aggressive than Nile crocs. Nile crocs more aggressive than west African crocs. There’s a west African tribe that has been living with, “taming” their subspecies of crocs since ancient Egypt. Ancient Egyptians called them crocodile riders & I believe it after seeing a documentary with children playing around & riding on one that could have easily made them a snack.

    • @ilarnmanrasta91
      @ilarnmanrasta91 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @JJ-fq4nl yeah no doubt I believe our crocs in Australia are more aggressive none the less still a crocodile. Wether it's in south East Asia or Africa they are all dangerous. That's very interesting brother can you tell me the name of that documentary?? Sounds interesting and there's tribes from Papua new Guinea who do the same kinda thing with crocs like the Egyptians!
      apparently it's some form of black magic.

    U could say they know what they're doing and calculated the risks with water temperature, crocs standard behavior, all that stuff... but the fact they thought that lil boat and 4 man strength could hold a 5 meters croc with bare hands show a complete different story. The whole time u could hear their mom telling them to stop playing that it wouldnt work lol

      Think the meant the first to dive into the cave with them but yeah I get what you mean. NAT geo photographers scuba dived to capture photos of the crocs in the early 00's on the delta. I met one of the boat crew while I was working in Botswana. Still had the NAT geo issue. Incredible stuff.

      It's not that they don't value their lives. There are people in the world that need to put themselves in these positions to feel alive. For them, a life without an element of risk is not living. It doesn't mean they are right and you are wrong, it just depends on each persons desire.
