"...and has barrel rolling crocodiles"

I think crocodiles naturally do barrel rolls. IIRC, they can only open and close their jaws rigidly, not move their bottom jaw side to side to tear and chew like other animals, which is why they twist and roll their entire bodies to rip meat off their prey.

Fun sift Haven't seen this movie in years.

Seriously though, I never knew that... Whe I was young, I thought that the crocodiles were just rolling in the water for comic relief after they ate the bad guys... >*
