Today since its bloody freezing where I am in NSW , Australia, I thought I'd take us up to the tropics , where the air is warm , the beer is cold ... and most of the wildlife wants to kill you.
Rob Bredyl aka The Barefoot Bushman and his family have been a huge part in wildlife conservation , in particular crocodiles . Rob's Dad , Josef played a big part in the Government ban on hunting and killing crocodiles.
In this episode I talk about the Bredyl family and the famous croc attack that saw Rob miraculously escape with all limbs in tact , proving again what a tough old bugger he is ... And my personal experience visiting Bredyl's wildlife farm, meeting Rob's nephew Zeb , who was there the day of the attack ... and dealing with my housemate , a 40 year old man who screamed like a girl when he was confronted with crocodiles. Which was both embarrassing and hilarious .
