Fear Factor Tried to drive through floodwater, got eaten by a croc. Full story below.
Police use a helicopter to lift a crocodile containing the remains of a 59-year-old man.
Authorities in South Africa suspected the reptile had eaten the man after tracking it with drones. They shot the crocodile and transported it by air.
Once back on the ground, they cut open the crocodile and discovered human body parts inside.
The remains are thought to belong to 59-year-old Gabriel Batista, who had earlier been carried off by strong floodwaters.
Inside the animal, they found his ring along with six additional pairs of shoes, which officials worry could belong to other missing people.
On Monday, Batista reportedly attempted to drive across a flooded bridge to reach his hotel and bar, but he and his truck were washed into the water.
He was then carried downriver, where crocodiles were lying in wait. It’s not known whether Batista was still alive when eaten, but officials believe other crocodiles may have consumed the rest of his remains.

Fear Factor sFIBER webs, this is in Ukraine
At first glance, those shiny lines look unreal.
But they’re not power lines, not plastic strips, not some farming material.
They’re fiber-optic cables left by drones in Ukraine/Russia.
Just imagine how many drones have already flown through that area for the ground to end up looking like this. A whole village turned into a web of modern warfare.
This is what drone war looks like after the drones are gone: not just craters and ruins, but threads everywhere, like the battlefield stitched itself shut with fiber.
A literal fiber web.
