Yes......probably not the smartest move he's made in his life ,but definitely his last, but to label someone as village idiot or blatantly stupid is a bit harsh in my eyes considering know one knows the real story other than reading it on the news from what I've heard.
Just like swimming in an "un patrolled" beach there are risks and the person doing it needs to make a risk assessment and at the end of the day its their choice. Obviously he made the wrong one, but a heap of un-informed people judging the situation in my eyes on a public
forum is not the right thing to do considering some people have just lost a family member.
And no.....I didn't even suggest it was the crocs fault? Not sure why you would even suggest that sort of crap?
Ive seen
young blackfellas jumping out of trees into the water while a dirty great croc sits on the opposite bank........why.......because they new where the crocs was. Its called local knowledge, but even that can go wrong at times, just like this might have.............
Maybe he was a complete idiot??? Who knows?
Everyones pretty quick to judge without knowing though and everyone becomes an expert because they went there once on holidays too.....
Just my opinion
