An Australian cattle farmer has survived a crocodile attack by biting it back on the eyelid.
Colin Deveraux, who is in his mid-60s, was attacked by a 3.2 metre salt-water crocodile in rural northern Australia.He was walking to repair some fencing by the Finniss River, south of the city of Darwin, when he stopped at a small lake."The water had receded and it was down to this dirty water in the middle," he said. "I took two steps and the dirty b****** latched onto my right foot," he told ABC.
"I was in such an awkward position … but by accident my teeth caught his eyelid," he said. "It was pretty thick, like holding onto leather, but I jerked back on his eyelid and he let go."I leapt away and took off with great steps up to where my car was."He chased me for a bit, maybe four metres, but then stopped." Mr Deveraux got a towel and some rope to stop the bleeding.
