Man nearly loses arm to crocodile while trying to impress girl
Updated | By Kriya Gangiah
Surprisingly this 18 year old is not regretting his risky declaration of love after almost losing an arm.
Lee de Paauw, who was staying at a hostel, boasted that he could swim across a crocodile-infested river all in aid of impressing a girl.
He was attacked in the Johnstone River just before 2.30am on Sunday when he leaped into the river after a few shots of liquid courage and a dare from on lookers.
A number of animal experts have expressed that he is luck to still be a live or even still have a working yet injured arm.
Here is an interview that the teen did with a local news agency.
