Speaker 1 (00:13):
Welcome to the cutting room floor. Just looking from the
sweepings that fell off the work bench. Yeah, stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
We spoke on our radio show in case you don't know.
In case this is the only snippet of us you hear.
We have a breakfast show and we speak about things.
Are you pulling a face?

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Okay, we haven't been doing it for some time.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
People might be new to this.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
This is a big cut before the horse, though, isn't it. No.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
My point is that we spoke on our radio show
about a recent increase in shark attacks in parts of
the world that don't normally see this, and what the
answer was as to this increase was put down to
influencers taking big risks in the wild, punching sharks in
the nose, luring them by wearing a chopper around their neck,
or whatever it was that's increased shark attacks. You think,

(00:59):
what idiot, who would do that? And then I don't
know if you've seen this store at this footage, which
is really disturbing the person lived, let's start with that.
But there's a zoo in the Philippines and a visitor
thought he would climb the crocodile enclosure. He says he
thought it was a plastic feature when he saw a

(01:20):
giant croc in there. He's climbed the enclosure and it's terrible.
You see him sitting there, grinning, taking a picture, and
then this a fully grown female crop charges him. She
charges him, She sinks her fangs into his arm. It
can be heard screaming, and then the crop puts him
into a death roll. And lucky for him, well that

(01:42):
happened for thirty minutes. He was enclosure for thirty minutes.
Maybe in Philippines are having a a cstr I don't
know what they were doing, but took thirty minutes before
the handler of that croc was able to free the
man by bashing the crock on the head with a
piece of cemit to losten and gip her grip. So
he's lucky, he's alive.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
He was just looking around.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
They said, he saw the crocodile, thought it was a
plastic feature. He climbed the fence to take a photo.
And the people who run the zoo were saying this
behavior is very dangerous. No one should ever go into
an enclosure. He's put other people's lives at risk, and
he's lucky to have survived.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
I would imagine that he didn't watch the guy for
thirty minutes. I would say that they tried to work
out how to get him out for thirty minutes.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yes, quick, go and get a feather to tiggle the pack.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
I wouldn't have just sat there and thought, well, let's
see how he goes to this.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
Look, we'll give him twenty nine minutes and then we'll
step in. But you remember, there's some strange footage. Have
you ever seen this street in Hanoi. It's a street
where the people have set up shot. Yes, I have
yes food right next to where the train is. It
freaks me out just looking at well the shops.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
The train comes through there, but because of the urbanization
of Hanoi, it's expanded on to the infrastructure.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
It's terrifyingly close, and lots of people trying to get
Instagram shots of that have been saved by shopkeepers saying
and grabbing them and pulling them back saying, this is
a real thing, this train's coming, this isn't ten Harley
has been in New Zealand at rat No what is it?
Roda Rua, and he heard an American tourist, Saint Nathan

(03:09):
if we weren't allowed to walk on this, there'd be
a sign.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
Yeah, it's a lot of boiling MutS.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
There's a lot of boiling mud, and they think I
can walk on that because no one's telling me not to.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
People are forgetting that the.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
World is real, animals are real, the world is dangerous. Yeah,
there's a mother and daughter visiting the Hoover Dam. This
stuff freaks me out. Just seeing the vision of those
big drop offs at dam's terrifying. This woman she saw
a sign warning visitors not to climb or sit on
the wall. It's a seven hundred foot drop. This mother
placed her five year old daughter there for a photograph.

(03:42):
This stuff makes my stomach.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
Do you think maybe it's just natural selection, Maybe that's
what it is. But there's warning signs on everything there,
ceiling fans, do not put your head in fan.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
But I think it's the phone. I think it's it's Instagram.
I think people's looking at other people's adventures. I think
the world is safe, much safer than it is.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
People will do stupid stuff when they're on a TV camera.
Look like whenever a weather presenter presents weather, all of
a sudden, there's people just in the background going yeah.
I spoke to a woman I apologize for that.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
During a cyclone. It was very I was actually.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
Presenting the weather. I went on teas not.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Even funny, because that's how they are. I spoke to
a woman who was working with a Wildlife Foundation and
she said that when she was training, they look at
the worst footage of people going up to say, grizzly
bears in the wild and saying.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Here, do you want to cookie?

Speaker 2 (04:39):
And then bang, it comes off. It comes off because
these are wild animals.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
We forget, yeh, f around and find out.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Yeah, but that's right, So don't forget. Don't f around,
or you will find out.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
When's it's going to be on? That's your latest show.

Speaker 2 (04:57):
It's called When's this going to be on? And people
just girn at the camera.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Kid, that's it for the day. Come back tomorrow from
Josiana Amanda study. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
