As writing again after a very long time, I planned to get you into a
thrilling adventure. Also, we have changed our site apperence as well.
Hope you like it. OK. Let’s see what its going to be about.
This is an amazing experience for people who are seeking for adventures, 15 minutes in a
Cage of Death, sharing a large glass tank with a
700kg crocodile at Crocosaurus Cove in downtown Darwin.
The guidebook of features a two-page photograph of a toothy-grinned crocodile under the caption “Pleased to eat you”.
But fear not!
The Cage of Death, which can hold two swimmers at a time, is designed to give you the thrill of your lifetime, not to end it.
It’s fabricated from acrylic-strengthened “glass” that reptiles’ jaws
and claws cannot break – although the cage bears scars where they’ve
tried.
The nearly 3m-tall cage is filled about 75 per cent with water,
topped by a grid-roofed section containing air, to which the
adrenaline-charged swimmers float up to breathe when required.
The saltwater crocodile divides his time between snoozing on the tank
floor and circling the cage as its occupants wave at him – or at the
watching spectators and their cameras, who are attracted by both the
drama and the swimmers who often are bikini-clad girls. Saltwater
crocodiles, known locally as “salties,” are the largest crocodile
species, with the males growing up to 19.6ft long and weighing up to
2,204lbs. They are found in across Southeast Asia but the highest
numbers are found in northern Australia.
While 15 is the minimum age for the cage, you are separated from the crocodile enclosure by walls of acrylic glass.
The most famous crocodile to be housed at the park is Burt, who
starred as the beast that nearly ate Linda Koslowski’s character in
Crocodile Dundee.
Hope you enjoyed it. Drop a comment or a crocodile will eat you! ha ha ha :p
