A PHOTOGRAPHER WITH National Geographic Trevor Frost managed to capture this incredible video of a crocodile propelling itself out of the water with its tail.

The clip was captured in northern Australia where Frost is working on a project on saltwater Crocodiles.

In the video description Frost explains that crocodiles have ‘incredibly strong tails’.

“Crocodiles are so cool.”
