Massive salt-water crocodile attempts break out at Broome crocodile park

A massive salt-water crocodile has attempted a break out from a Broome Crocodile Park in a viral video posted to TikTok.

Hair-raising footage filmed at Malcolm Douglas Crocodile Park in Broome of the water dwelling reptile went viral on TikTok on Monday (July 1) after the huge salt-water crocodile scared onlookers by attempting to scale its enclosure fence.

“He obviously wants his feed now,” the keeper can be heard saying in the video.

“If he climbs over into the feed bay and the doors open you guys have to run. That’s what I’m going to do.”

Tourist Sophia Armstrong filmed the croc’s great escape attempt with the animal startling the crowd by trying to scale the fenced enclosure.

Since the clip was posted it has racked up more than 200,000 views from across the world, with viewers stunned by the reptiles agility.

“I don’t want to alarm anyone, but they climb fences,” Ms Armstrong joked on her TikTok post.

Viewers flocked to the comment section to share their humorous anecdotes and comments.

“Hahaha his little legs! He’s so cute,” one said.

“He needs a pet, he just wants a cuddle,” commented another.

“This looks like me trying to get out of the pool,” one user joked.

Unfortunately for the croc, a park worker quickly snuffed out the crocs plan, pushing the reptile back into it’s enclosure before it could make a run for freedom.
