Elvis the crocodile attacks a lawnmower at the Australian Reptile Park in Gosford, north of Sydney, in this still image taken from video December 28, 2011. Two workers at a reptile park near Sydney ran for their lives on Wednesday when a 500 kg crocodile named Elvis suddenly lunged at them, making off with their lawnmower.

That’s 1,100 lbs. of lurking, lunging lizard, lunching. According to Wiki, the top speed for an Australian freshwater croc is about 11mph, easily outrun, unless you happen to mowing grass next to its territory, so don’t do it.

I don’t know whether to laugh or be disgusted. I think I’ll laugh.

Don’t blame me. Blame Amy. She just HAD to post it, but couldn’t get the animation to work on Blogger so she emailed it to me and axed for help. WorpDress automatically converts .gif animations, so I copied and pasted the .gif’s html onto a new post on her site, and it worked. I’ve been tossing posts on AmyOops semi-regularly since January 2009. Amy’s good peeps, and a veteran, too.

We’re all a team here, and since I had to see it, now you do, too. Gripe away me lads and lassies, gripe away, for this is The Overnight Open Thread.
