But you just don't see it anymore, why?
Do you have any fond croc ride memories?


Hmmm. I don't remember that.
I did have a baby caymen for a pet when I was maybe 5 or 6 years old. I was really into dinosaurs and decided that reptiles were like dinosaurs.
There was a place called The Alligator Farm not too far away from where we lived. They had all kinds of different crocks, alligators, snakes, lizards. There was one giant alligator in a large pen. People would stand and watch a trainer inside the enclosure doing demonstrations and talking about the gator, which had apparently been in some Tarzan movies.
At some point, the trainer would ask for one child volunteer from the audience. Then he'd set the kid on the gator's back to show how tame it was.
I don't think there was ever an incident, but they quit doing that at some point because of safety concerns. What could go wrong? LOL
They were tricked by the Chinese to "upgrade" to those hoverboards that, I promise, had no battery issues whatsoever.

That might be a dead crocodile that is stuffed inside with inorganic substances.
Wait whattttt

Mine died of old age sadly so I can’t ride him anymore. But I had bob turned into a pair of boots and a belt so I could keep a piece of him with me.
kids these days will never understand the joy of riding on a crocodile at the breakneck speeds of 1mph.
Modern times , plus so many advocates to protect kids and all, plus there will be people who find that dangerous and probably child abusing or animal abuse, you know, stuff like that, plus who say it isn’t still happening but privately in wealthy homes or in certain countries as punishment 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
I wish we had had crocodiles where I grew up. Alas no. These days there are probably too many liability waivers and the crocodile union won't allow it. 🤦♂️
Because this guy scared them off. I'm sure this one would have loved childen climbing on his back, while he nursed his awful headache.
https://www.youtube.com/embed/sH6ySsqkopIIt's safe tell you remember they can beat the piss out of you with that tail. Makes me wonder how many of those kids where beaten to death because they approached a crocodiles from the wrong angle.
well in the good old days, nature was still allwed to do natural selection. nowadays we put warnings and restrictions on everything, which keeps all the idiots in the gene pool xD
Isn't that an alligator?
Bloody American knock-off of a beloved pastime...
We rode pigs. No crocs available in the mountains. Pigs were safer because they ran through the brush so fast, you didn't feel the cuts till later. And they knew to run from the bears.
It seems like kids gave up on riding crocodiles & now their riding alligators.
Cuz there’s no place to plug in their phone charger.
Where we lived in the north, it was too cold for crocodiles, but we did have some pretty big turtles. My young kids loved riding the turtles, until they got too big.
Crocodile propaganda was too strong. They outsmarted us. D'oh.
We don’t have crocodiles where I live so we ride polar bears instead.
We all seem to be in a hurry these days, and crocs are just too slow for modern times.
White folk back then would hitch up their own grandmother if they thought it would plow the field any better. Thanks God for techmology.
Crocodiles are quite dangerous and they actually can go quite fast, but have trouble turning. Riding on a crocodile is torture to the animal.
@OlderAndWiser is probably the only GAGer who did this.
If you are trying to decide between a career in the law and doing stand-up comedy. . . :) :) :)
@OlderAndWiser: I love standup comedy. But now that I think about it, only UF grads who confused gators and crocs did this, right?
I spent a lot of time in FL when I was a kid and my mom was always worried I'd run into a gator.
:) :) :) You know I am an FSU alumnus, don't you?
@OlderAndWiser: Hence the joke about "Gators"
I assumed. . .
I just remember the days I rode a kangaroo to school. It was too cold for crocs in my part of the world. Parents tried to have them shipped down but they just shivered to death.
One got abnormally huge and killed around 300 humans. Wonder if he ever beat his record…. Or if someone else has
I rode a giant turtle when I was like 5. I'm pretty sure that's basically the same thing.
That is far too dangerous, Crocodiles are very fast they can up to 20 mph; faster than most humans.
Yes, now kids have to wear helmets to ride a bicycle. No wonder they are such wimps.
Ridden a turtle before. But it was just so slow
it's all a big conspiracy by big camel. Crocodiles have been maligned and given a bad name!!
Since the croc who gobbled the kid at Disney, you can’t trust them anymore. Damn dinosaurs.
Too tame, I believe bullsharks are all the rage now.
People spend to much time on their cell phones and don't go outside these days.
Omg this can't be real. Crocodiles and mean bastards
Stupid prodect safety commission.
Das an alligator not a crocidillio
Parents these days.🤣
Because Dinosaurs became Extinct
I know never to smile at one.
I ride pussy
... or maybe the other way round.
Poor crocss.. we should not ride them.
Their hides are too tough?
Omg this was a thing?
Is this for real?
Lol sounds like child abuse
Crocodiles aren't slow
Poor gas mileage?
Am I supposed to believe this?
Its dangerous
