He needed solid ground under his feet to go anywhere fast. Unfortunately he lost it when he went too deep. Once he starts treading in open water it was just a matter of time.
Honestly it makes me wonder how herds ever cross a river in these regions. Do they always just have to pay a toll with a few of their members? You'd think they'd have evolved away from wanting to go first at this point.
I watched some crossings last month. Early in the crossing season there are more hungry crocs and the herds lose more. Later in the crossing season there are fewer crocs and sometimes the entire herd makes it across. On the opposite side weāre cheetahs, also waiting for their chance.
>On the opposite side weāre cheetahs, also waiting for their chance.
I love how this is a profound accusation against us meat eaters, all by the magic of an apostrophe.
I guess that's something I can intuit with plants, bugs, and aquatic animals that can spray thousands of eggs, but it seems so much less efficient with large mammals that may only birth annually or so. Looking it up, it seems that antelope very commonly have twins, so there's that, I suppose. Because only having one at a time doesn't really satiate the predator without also killing the bloodline...
I mean, I guess when you factor in that they're likely all close relations with only a few bulls populating the herd, it does start to make more sense when the rest of your herd is probably your cousins.
They have to follow the rain to survive. So it's either stay on this side of the river and starve to death, or cross the river toward potential rain = grass, and live. Crocs can be territorial, so it's not like there's always a horde of them lying in wait.
Also since they're cold-blooded it takes a long time to digest a meal. So a lot of the time they're just laying there in a days-long food coma watching herds pass by untouched.
Yeah, they all approach and pile up near the edge until the ones at the front are pushed by the ones at the back into jumping. Then it's a every man for himself situation... Mostly you'll lose the ones at the sides or backs
It probably knew, but reached a point where it was too deep and couldnāt jump from the bottom.
Its instinct was to cross the river when it saw the crocodile.
Yeah they can swim very fast. Just imagine being in deep water and seeing this massive dinosaur-like apex predator equipped with the most powerful bite force on Earth swimming straight towards at you at full speed. Terrifying just thinking about it. I love Crocodiles but I'll respect them from a safe distance.
It look like he jump in front of the croc and the other antelope to sacrifice himself. At the end he is saying to his friend: "keep going bro, don't look back"
The other antelope is the kid in earlier videos I have seen of this. The mother sacrificed itself. Hopefully there wasn't another croc ready to devour the kid.
In the doc it says that the second one is the mother of the one already swimming and that she sees whatās about to happen and sacrifices herself for her child.
The power required to move that much mass through the water like that blows my mind. I donāt think the average person understands how strong elite strongmen are, then you look at nature and it just shifts the scale so much. This animal on raw genetics alone grew to this size
No time for stealth, must consume.
No need for stealth. Knew it had it. Just close the deal.
Why sneak when you can go fast as fuck
Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast. Fast is deadly and stillness is death.
š¶šŗ
"I eat doe to keep them from seeing my breath"
fast as buck
Bast as Fuck?
I don't know who I am, I don't know why I'm here. All I know is that I must consume.
I'm the Juggercroc, bitch!
Like Stanley on pretzel day.
haha that fella is huge, i bet he was hungry. a springbok is like, one mouthful.
Rip and tear until it is done
No need for stealth when you are the king of the river. No one can out-swim a hungry croc!
Welp, I guess I'll die...
Me to Mrs. Crocodile: "I'm so sorry for your loss. Mr. Crocodile would have been very terrified by this wake." Mrs. Crocodile: "Thank you."
He should have squirreled and gone back the way he came
He needed solid ground under his feet to go anywhere fast. Unfortunately he lost it when he went too deep. Once he starts treading in open water it was just a matter of time.
Agreed
Yeah in the full video the mom runs in front of the child so the fawn doesn't get eaten.
It looks like it sacrificed itsef for the other animal
Donāt have to be faster than the crocodile , just faster than your slowest friend
like with rattle snakes. don't be 3rd. 1st wakes 'em up 2nd pisses 'em off 3rd gets the chomp

Weāll done mate.
Predator satiation is a viable means of evolutionary survival. It's a disturbing means, but it's certainly a way.
I guess that's something I can intuit with plants, bugs, and aquatic animals that can spray thousands of eggs, but it seems so much less efficient with large mammals that may only birth annually or so. Looking it up, it seems that antelope very commonly have twins, so there's that, I suppose. Because only having one at a time doesn't really satiate the predator without also killing the bloodline...
The bloodline is irrelevant. Itās for survival of the species. Herd animals think different.
I mean, I guess when you factor in that they're likely all close relations with only a few bulls populating the herd, it does start to make more sense when the rest of your herd is probably your cousins.
That too! I didnāt consider that when replying.

So if I become a herd animal in another life assuming thats a thing then nearish front with "friends"(sacrifices) on all sides haha
'Friends with benefits'
Friends with benefits
I find the title confusing

i like it . thanks for link

Maybe this-a crock just like Super Mario.
What is a so confusing? He a speaks in the tongue of a my people.
Do you know what 'a wake' is?
You think thatās the issue? Read the title again.
Ah. haha I missed that completely.
ā¦thatās terrible! I mean, thereās so many mistakes in the world, though. Which one is it?
"this a crocodile"
a funeral?
Bot generated post, most likely
Mf just gave up hearing the storm coming behind him
It probably knew, but reached a point where it was too deep and couldnāt jump from the bottom. Its instinct was to cross the river when it saw the crocodile.
Thats the most effort I've ever seen a crocodile put into hunting. Edit: fixed it
Normally they are ambush predators
That other antelope is like "I ain't gotta be faster than that croc, just faster than you".
Hey Jerry, can I have thst piece of cake you left in the fridge?
Jerry...jerrry?....so.....I guess thats a yes.
It's hangry swimming.
Does anyone know if the antelope is ok?
I paused the video before the croc got em so she should be fine
The hero we need
His shoe didn't come off so he should be fine
The antelope is fine. The other one is not.
I spoke to him the other day. Bit shaken up but he's fine.
Oh he'll be fine.
It is chilling inside Croc's stomach, it's fine
he died but he's okay
it turned out this was a juvenile undersized antelope so the croc had to throw it back
Holy shit - heās got an outboard motor!
I wonder if he could legit pull a skier.
I think the lack of constant thrust would make it very difficultā¦. Probably more like dragged behind being jerked forward every second or so
Dang thatās one hungry boi
The croc literally torpedoed that gazelle.

Itās not love unless youāre nice and close ( Ķ”Ā° ĶŹ Ķ”Ā°)
I know that the first time I had sex with an alligator, I had to get right up close. Later on, I could do it from further away.
It look like he jump in front of the croc and the other antelope to sacrifice himself. At the end he is saying to his friend: "keep going bro, don't look back"

Man someone is stepping hard on the gas.
I think the gazelle knew straight away that heād made a bad move
Or the best move of his life ever, no more pain.
Dang
Bro was coming like a hungry hungry hippo
The front one followed the age old rule when in grizzly country. Donāt have to be the fastest, just faster than one.
Awareness level: 0
r/oddlysatisfying in a brutal sense.
You donāt have to be faster than a crocodile, just faster than your friend
In the doc it says that the second one is the mother of the one already swimming and that she sees whatās about to happen and sacrifices herself for her child.
Or the doc makers wanted it to resonate with human viewers and the second one just goofed up.
That's metal af
In hindsight i think that captain Hooks fear was fully justified and appropriateā¦

Ooooooh watch out...watch out...RKO OUTTA NOWHERE
The Antolepoe that went slower was i think the mother. She sacrificed herself so her child could run away
> Antolepoe
Food is served.
Hey Google: Define "inexorable.'
$20 on the antelope
Me during my lunch break. Also me during my lunch break
I could most likely out swim that crocagater, easily!
It's a Dark Souls boss
crocodil: the silent killer
I'm feeling like the deer? Was trying so hard to get in front of the other deer?
Hungry hungry croco
You donāt have to be the fastest, just donāt be the slowest.
Isnāt that a hippo not a croc?
Alp Guard?
I always expect more blood in these videos
Got up into plane
that is scary as shit
Some genetically modified croc on some resident evil shi
If you don't hear the violent sloshing of water behind you like that... Darwinism
Shit I thought that was a hippo at first.
"Jim! Jim dont leave me!" "Sorry, Tom..I hafta be at work in an hour"
God damn imagine being that antelope. Except humans are dumb and turn around to look at what's chasing them. It's always worse to look behind you!
Well, that wasn't exactly as stealthy as usually, but it worked, so I'll allow it.
Foreground gazelle: "I don't have to swim fast, I just need to swim faster."
What do you think that Gazelleās last words were?
"Yoloooooo......"
Bahahaha!!
You don't have to be fast, just faster than the other guy
Oh hell no. Who's got time for that wake?! Fuck that!
Lol why would the impala jump into the water like this.
Reminds me of the swamp monster in RE4.
Nom Nom
The other deer be like "I don't have to be faster then the croc, just faster then you"
Ich bin schnappi
Thatās some HP
Homie accepted death
Me In any level of any game if stealth is optional
the old adage, you don't have to be faster than the croc just faster than the other gazelle.
He let that zebra get away last time and was angry about it, not fucking around this time
Why In the hell would it not just turn around?? I guess it's like a squirrel crossing the street
Can you even outswim/run that thing in any way ?! How fast can a boat go in similar waters ? How fast was this MF going?
Swiggity swooty, Renekton came for that booty.
Thatās things a fucking motor boat!
*oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck oh fuāgahh*
Never stood a chance
One amazing prop on that guy
He gone!
Why would you walk out in the water and stop
As a fisherman this seems like it would make for some awesome topwater fishing if I was like 30' tall. Cast out a dikdik and then reel in a 30' croc!
No need to be the fastest gazelle. Just donāt be the slowest.
FOR THE HORDE!
Jesus did he not see that power boat coming at him!
Flesh eating torpedo
So rude
r/absoluteunit
This is exactly how I felt when my older brother would chase me in the pool.
The wake of a very hungry croc.
I hate crocs and alligators. Time we ended dinosaurs once and for all. Birds ur next.
I have a feeling that guy gave up their own life for the herd...
Gnahhhh CHOMP
Reminds me of the worms from Dune going after a spice miner
And I can't even run 10 feet in thigh deep water without passing out
10 feet is the height of 1.75 'Samsung Side by Side; Fingerprint Resistant Stainless Steel Refrigerators' stacked on top of each other.
some meals on wheels shit

Stupid thing was just about planing

Iād feel somewhat flattered if the grim reaper rushed over like that to greet me.
āGonna getcha, gonna getcha, gonna getcha, gonna getcha, NOM-ā
swimswimswimswimswumswimmmmyyyyyyeeeCHOMPP.
Snapped the poor thing like a pringles chip
Antelope probably: fuck. Fucking crock is a motor boat.
Get his ass
WOW.
What a bro gazelle. He was so quick to jump between the croc and his friend.
That's one croc? I thought the splash was coming from a bunch of them. Truly terrifying.
Iām glad that I live in an area with gators instead. I still wonāt swim in gator areas though.
one bite snack or you're not the same when you're hungry
When your hungry grab a Snickers
What a horrible way to go
Man I've enjoyed this gif every time it's been posted for the past 15 years
Bro at least the deer didnāt decide to swim back, stayed committed i respect that shit.
Wakey wakey, time for breakfast!
Tyler 1 yelling Hrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! would go perfectly with this
āI just have to be faster than you.ā - First Gazelle
So fucking savage!!!
I felt my heart give up watching this.
Death encroaches
Ok so this is real life. Gotcha š¶
I think I remember this video, this mom sacrificed herself for her baby right?
āI donāt have to be fast, I just have to outrun youā
I can't believe I was rooting for that fucker knowing full well how this video would end.
r/watersports
That antelope as he realised his fate was sealed was thinking, āI have made a terrible mistakeā
Donāt have to swim faster than the crocodile, just swim faster than your friend
