Briefly.co.za gathered that the usual practice is that the tourist guide feeds the crocodile first with a fowl before tourists get closer, and they do so from behind and not from the sides.
But in this instance, the tour guide reportedly failed to feed the crocodile before allowing the people to start posing alongside the reptile.
Although the crocodile initially remained calm as the tourists took turns to take photos with it, it suddenly attacked a woman who touched it from the side.
The video shows the tourists and the guards running for their lives as the reptile attacked the woman.
