Terri Irwin

And I was like, wow, that's really incredible.

So he's explaining that with the smaller crocodiles, maybe seven foot or smaller, he would go out at night with his boat and he'd idle the boat in the dark and he'd have a spotlight.

And then he'd pick up the red eye shine of the crocodile.

And as he idled in on it, then it was living near a boat ramp.

He knew he had to move it.

So he'd get close.

He'd slow down the boat and start drifting, and then as he got close enough, he'd drop the spotlight and spear into the water, grab the croc around the base of the neck, go down to the bottom of the river, tuck its tail between his legs, shoot up from the bottom, flick it into the boat, flip into the boat, and then he'd have the crocodile.

And I was thinking, who

who on earth is this man?

Exactly.

Because he was telling the story the way I would tell.

And then I was at the grocery store and I saw a sale on bread, you know.

Did you hear what you just said, sir?

You know, and he was so passionate about wildlife.

But the other thing that impressed me was that old saying where when you walk into the bar, you don't have to ask who the tiger keeper is.

He's going to tell you.

Yep.

He wasn't like that at all.

It wasn't about him.

Look how cool I am.
