Thrilling encounters with wildlife often grab attention online, but some are so risky they leave viewers holding their breath. One such video, now going viral on social media, shows a young man engaging in a dangerous stunt involving a crocodile in a river.
In the clip, the boy is seen standing just inches away from the massive reptile. Holding a piece of meat in his hand, he repeatedly teases the crocodile extending the food toward it.
Eventually, the boy hands over the meat, and the hungry crocodile devours it without harming him.
While the scene might seem playful to some, it is undeniably dangerous. Crocodiles are unpredictable predators, and any sudden move could have ended in tragedy.

The location is famous not only as a historical and religious site but also for its resident crocodiles, which are regularly fed by visitors as part of a long-standing tradition.
The Khan Jahan Ali Dargah, located in Bagerhat district, attracts both devotees and tourists. One of its unique attractions is the practice of feeding meat to the crocodiles kept in the adjacent water bodies. While the custom is popular, experts warn that such close interactions with wild animals can be extremely risky.
