Japanese Army vs. Killer Crocodiles 1945

That’s a pretty terrifying 10 mile jaunt.

What a horrible death ..

I was born in Ramree island but i didn't know about that. My grandma told me about Japanese army occupation.

Churchill Crocodiles are nice too

Crocodile Rock! 🐊🐊🐊

Japanese soldier: "Men, head for the swamp"
Crocs: "Itadakimasu"

These crocodiles belong to the allied force.

Just another chapter of "The Horror of War"

Make a great movie

Outstanding! Obviously, the Crocs were on our side! Their hunger, plus all the other 'creepy-crawlies', saved the loss of any more Allied troops."Good Crocs... stay!"
On a more serious note, I have an old 1945 Australian war magazine which shows a small cartoon of a Japanese soldier, in a jungle, penning a letter home. The caption reads, 'Having a great time. We will soon win. I'm safe and well.' Behind the seated soldier is a crocodile, and a python, both just about to strike.
This wartime black humour does, however, point to the real dangers facing the Japanese in areas that Australian and Allied soldiers would not dare enter.
Another fantastic, unexpected view of WW2, like your excellent Crocodile Russian POW video. Good work, Mark. Cheers, BH

I live here in Myanmar (Burma) I thought this was a myth.

A crocks gotta eat

Crocs talking: War..What war ?. Lets eat !

Look like truth, but what crazy story about being eaten. Thumb up thanks for posting.

If there was ever a movie begging to be made...

Japanese soldier : no man on earth could defeat us.
croc : i'm no man, hooman

Anyone else hear the jungle music from MGS 3 ????

The crocs had been trained by the Special Forces. ....it's still a secret.

The incident is listed in the Guiness book of records

Their end was to good for the bastards.

This would be a great horror/thriller film. Just like when the Germans and English made a truce to fight off Savage wolves during ww1. I think. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Filipino soldiers crocs taste like chicken

But the good thing for japanese nowadays is their payback time,like helping other countries they've been invaded .I've been to japan and they are very disciplined now, one of the best people for me but they are very opposite from the japanese before..

Brit soldier : .... 'did you hear that ? '
Officer : ' uhhhh....Kamikaze training ..... '

Crocs love shushi

No real numbers just propoganda..

"say no to WAR"

Sushi anyone

Crocs speaking to another croc: these sushis comes with toothpicks, and it's a free meal....

Crocodiles probably got hungry after an hour

This would be the ultimate horror movie because it really took place.

Why hasn’t this been made Into a movie yet ? I would love to see a drama suspense movie about the Japanese trying to survive not only the British but also the crocs .....

Sushi, the crocodile way!😎

Burma's has it's own native crocodiles.. how do we know these were Aussie crocodiles?

Had to be a terrifying death. No matter who you are a terrible way to go. Glad we won the war but l feel for those men who died in the swamp a horrible death. I’m a Vietnam vet and l know what it’s like in the jungle with those snakes.

1st battalion, culinary division, 1st crocodile regiment .

Crazy shit man....another good war story by this dude.

Urban legend this story has been exaggerated

And thus Elton John was inspired!!! 🎶

Even the kamikazes are scared of crocs

Looks like the Crocs dined on Sushi.

Japanese Army most likely drove out or consumed the natural prey of the crocs, when crocs get hungry they are NOT picky

USA we have nuclear weapons for war
Japan we have kamakazi pilots for war
Australia we have crocodiles for war

I would probably be scared going in the waters not knowing where the crocs are if I Foran

To think they did all that fighting for the Australians and still were harassed by Steve orwin on a daily crocodiles lives matter

The biggest salties can be 23 feet long (though in decades past 25 footers weren't uncommon, but nowadays 21-23 is the biggest) and close in on 2500 pounds. Fully grown they are A LOT bigger then 1,000 pounds and 17 feet long.

I was expecting a piece on the use of the Crocodile Churchill against the Japanese. I am now trying to weigh up what would be more terrifying to face.

Slight nitpick, but, there are no vultures in Australia. The most likely scavengers would’ve been Eagles, Dingos, or Crows.

Heil japan 🎶🎵🌟🌟💖💜

I don't like the Video

Was this more than were killed by Croce ,at Kohima/Imphal?
