The severed lower left arm of a Taiwanese veterinarian is seen in the jaws of a crocodile, Wednesday, April 11, 2007, at the Shoushan Zoo in Kaohsiung, 350 kilometers (217 miles) south west of Taipei, Taiwan. Chang Po-yu's lower left arm was bitten off by the crocodile when he tried to pull a tranquilizer dart from the reptile's body. Two bullets were shot at the crocodile but it was unharmed. Chang went through emergency surgery to have his limb reattached. (AP Photo/Steve Chen)

The funny part is how badass the croc is after. He doesn't swallow it, but sits there with it in his mouth like a warning. The clip shows that it looked more like a show where he taunts it and sticks his hand in, not at all how the AP story explained it. |

Looks like the guy in the vid kept his arm but it was spiral fractured and shredded from the roll. Photo looks nice and clean. |

Ah gotcha, didn't look that closely but yeah the end of the vid there isn't a hand left, but the guy got a nasty shredding. Grainy but looks like the skin ripped open pretty good & his hand is hanging. blech |
