He understood how and when crocs are dangerous. He understood a bit less about rays apparently. He probably also knew that lethal ray attacks are very rare. This probably caused him to lower his guard: a lethal mistake.
Definately a cool guy.

Because he was filming A stingray at the time. Would have been a bit nuts if a Croc had went out of its way to swim out to the barrier reef just to attack him, so the animal that was at hand had a pop
