I Swim With Crocodiles ( Documentary)

Known as the Crocodile Man, Costa Rican animal lover Chito swims, plays and even feeds Pocho the giant crocodile in what is one of the world s most unlikely friendships. The Man Who Swims with Crocodiles Documentary follows Chito, a Costa Rican fisherman who is one of the only men ever known to tame a crocodile with people traveling from all over the country to marvel at their bond. He nursed the animal back to health after discovering him blinded by the bullet of a hunter over 20 years ago. Feeling strongly compelled to investigate these legends first hand, Roger Horrocks visits a Costa Rican shaman, Chito that swims with a giant croc and even rides on the back of the ancient reptile. This and many other stories confirms Roger s belief that these giant crocodiles have the ability of showing emotion and creating connections with human beings, an otherwise impossible notion in the crocodile s long history.
