Cave diving with a crocodile is my new worst nightmare that I never would have come up with on my own

[maddvon]

I love how you didn’t try to demonize these beautiful animals by putting scary music over the footage instead just appreciating their beauty and presence

[maskotep]

This is the best crocodile footage I've ever seen.

[stevedavidmusic]

Seems a lot scarier than a shark! There's something about snakes / crocs / alligators that scares me more than any other animal.

[khoyuqi]

i remember watching your videos as a kid. this brings back so much nostalgia LOL

[e.l.]

It always puts a smile on my face to see these folks having so much fun while showcasing so many unique wonders.
Edit: WHAT?! My goodness, this was a crazy video!!

[FintasticFilms]

BlueWorld is back! Super fascinating episode; I’d love to swim with crocs!

[USAIRFORCE]

Jon, by comparison to their African (Nile) and Australian (Salty) cousins the American Alligator and American Croc can be relatively safe to swim with in a contained environment though you had the right idea giving this beast his space!

[benderbendingrodriguez]

Absolutely wild/beautiful footage. Seeing a Gator swimming in its natural environment is beyond something you don't see often compared to Sharks etc,

[nayaleezy]

wow guys, I didn't anticipate you'd go looking for them. wow

[bemusedbandersnatch]

I love how reflective the surface is from underwater. It takes what are already some pretty great shots and has them take on a sort of weird, surreal art quality.

[TDruzhok]

I was listening to a guided meditation recently, where I was told to imagine a coral reef. And due to binging your videos for a week, I was like "oh, I can do that for sure" 😂 Super excited for the new episode!

[WildBillCox]

Croc on a rock,
But he don't want to talk,
We'll come back a little later,

Stunned by the light,
He's not gonna fight,
Unless you're an alligator.

[sjldfilms]

Such a graceful, beautiful animal. You and Todd live a charmed life. To see such amazing thugs, all to share with us. You both deserve your blessings.

[onyxwolfreaper]

Let's be honest, they dont look all that scary when their legs are spread apart like that- heck they look kinda funny-

However, we should always respect these magnificent predators and appreciate them from a safe distance-

[normalnorma]

Amazing footage of the American crocodile. It's fantastic to see him underwater, he's so graceful and beautiful. Thank you for this amazing video.❤

[DiRECs]

11:14 Ok, he's just modelling right now 😀 Beautiful animal

[AllieThePrettyGator]

Here's a fun fact about crocodiles, they can tolerate saltwater. Thats why American and Saltwater Crocodiles have a huge range.

[rrrosecarbinela]

Amazing footage. I wish you'd droned up to get the lake with your lights shining in it.... :)

[Puchio]

It's funny 'cause while standing still underwater they look a bit goofy, but swimming with just the tail they look really cool.
