Daring filmmakers get close and personal with with crocodiles in a habitat in Mexico

Wildlife biologist Forrest Galante and cameraman Mark Romanov went to clear waters in an undisclosed location in the Caribbean, south-east of the Gulf of Mexico, to get close and personal with six colossal crocodiles and capture them on camera.

In order to approach the wild crocodiles, the pair mimicked a large adult crocodile by wearing a special scaly wetsuit. Their tactics were successful and they captured the movements of the large beasts below water. However, It was still a risky move as a crocodile once tried to take a bite out of the cameraman, who kept filming and managed to move away in time. More photos below...
