These are big python looking creatures.
They're yellow with black markings.
They're thick as pythons and they coil up at you as you pass.
And apparently they've got to bite you between your fingers or your toes to actually kill you because they do have venom.
But I think it's about puncturing the skin.
They can only puncture those really thin bones.
bits of skin, but scary.
I absolutely dislike snakes.
And these were in the water.
So not only sharks, crocodiles, sea snakes.
I also had a day, speaking about sharks, because my mind was on crocodiles, where a huge shark leapt out of the water.
None of my crew saw it on the boat, a couple of hundred meters ahead of me and disappeared.
And the skipper, when I described it, thinks it might've been a bronze whaler.
It was massive.
And these are just things you think, am I in a movie right now?
I couldn't make this stuff up.
I would say it was about equal in terms of difficulty.
It was 32 degree in the water.
This was up near Darwin.
So it feels like a bath and those creatures, you know, love that water.
