given the right conditions Nile crocodiles can grow to well over 5 [Music] m he’s absolutely [Music] enormous I am genuinely completely overwhelmed this is Henry he was a man eating Croc caught by an elephant hunter called Sir Henry hence the name Henry he was caught in 1903 making Henry more than 120 years old therefore the oldest living crocodile in the world I am genuinely Star Struck at over 5 m he’s the length of a mini buus and weighs a whopping 700 kilos can’t quite believe I’m being allowed to do this but uh the keepers have told me that this is his safe Zone oh I mean he almost doesn’t look real until you see him reacting like this you see the flexing of those massive mus almost coming up off the ground one of the places that really big Crocs keep their weight is in fat deposits and the biggest of those are going to be behind the head and here at the base of the tail this is one of the key things that can see them through lean times that ability to lie low for months even potentially years on end without eating but the business end is the mouth the jaws and the teeth what a sound this is the closest thing I have to a fan girl moment it’s the feet look at the scale of it alongside my hand it’s absolutely insane

Aw Henry is so sweet… I just wanna kiss him right on his sweet little nose
i wonder how many americans think that they can take this beast down 1vs1 ? just like relativily large portion of them think that they can win against full grown lion 1vs1 without weapons .
I thought he was a statue at first 😂
I wonder how fast he moves since he’s so old
It leaves me in awe how massive he is and his magnificent beauty
A living dinosaur 😂
Oldest KNOWN crocodile
I am literally in awe of the size of this lad
Old Henry…💡❤️🙏
Henry got a dump truck…😏
Is this the saltwater crocodile?
Honestly the fact he still seems to have all his teeth 100 years on is what amazes me.
The king of the crocodilians. All gators, caimans, gharials, and crocs must come pay homage😄🐊
He's just enjoying his retirement life.
literal dinosaur
This crocodile was born before sustained flight. And now he's on social media. Let that sink in
Better be ready to run at a moment's notice. That "safe zone" can disappear in a second.
A man eating beasts,, magnificent
Whoa..103 yrs old !!
when he was caught doesn't dictate how old he was he probably is older than that
❤❤❤❤❤
How do you know it’s the oldest? Have you caught and tagged every one of them? 🤔🤷♂️
*sits next to crocs head
"this was a man eating croc that was caught"
Yeah no thanks man, cool animal though.
Old Henry could do with a bit of a tough time by the looks of him. A few too many chook puddings. Give him 6 months of vegan diet and watch him move next time a handler goes in his territory…
He’s a Legend in Red Dead
Henry said come on up here so i can get a better look its been awhile since I've had human
The most evolutionary predators which are Crocodiles 🐊
Human must be respectful to them, then they must be saved seriously for naturewild’s healthiness. 🐊🐊🐊🐊👍👍
