    Germans 1, Crocs 0

    But probably a good advert for Toyota



    Tourists rescued from croc-infested river - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

    Can only hope the police get them to pay for the clean up of the police 4WD.

    Dummkopf: yes, but 2 metres: no. News reports have the water depth at only 1 metre. Still too bl**dy deep for 80 kph!

    My Germanic old father would have called the driver a wasserkopf!

    Used to live at Oenpelli for 2 years. The things we saw torists do even after being warned was amazing.

    This area is not only infested with croc's , but BIG croc's.

    Gotta love it, gives us something to be thankful for.

    Cheers

    [Pinch of salt] Remember it's only the press that says 80kph, even if it was attributed to the tourists[/Pinch of salt]
