I am so fascinated by animals. There really isn't much out there that interests me more, especially animals you can't necessarily get close to.

I always try to find the most interesting videos out there on the internet and I think I have the one that will take the cake Tuesday.

A National Geographic photographer Trevor Frost caught one of the more interesting videos you will find.

With food dangled high in the air a crocodile manages to use its tail to get the bait.

Their tails propel them in the water like torpedoes from a submarine. In fact, as you see here, their tails are so strong that they can propel their entire body out of the water. Crocodiles are so cool. Stay tuned for more amazing crocodile photos and videos.

This is just another reason why these animals are so interesting to me.
