Come to the US, the lake I grew up on. They was this bridge and that was well known for people to drive off the bridge down a 20ft drop into the lake. 99% of the time they was pushed in to claim insurance. A teenager drove off it and unfortunately she didn’t make it. They send down a recuse team of divers. The water is so muddy the closer to the bottom made it harder to find her. 2 divers surfaced and told the cops they reported the groupers were as big as a Volkswagen beetle. I was only 8 at the time when I found that out. Had too many nightmares of being sucked up by one of those fishes and I die….

I would be scared to go swimming in that water, with fish that big under the water.

Is it wise holding a fish with your back to a croc infested river?
