Das ist nicht ein kleine Krokodil!
Also, this song is now stuck in my head, thanks!
I’m pretty sure that when the kids shouted Jesus Christ, they weren’t asking for his protection.
I wonder how much god would have protected them if they stayed within chomping distance?
Since God apparently uses guns, I guess our “gun problems” in the U.S. are actually “God problems.”
I’m pretty sure god put the crocodile there in the first place. Kind of a weird trick to play on a bunch of kids don’t you think?
Now I know not to click the link out of fear of earworms!
I actually like it… it’s a very cute German kid’s song about a krokodil named Schnappi who lives on the nile…But it is an ear worm, for sure.
Crocs and prayers folks, crocs and prayers.
Apparently not the good pairing you’d expect. Not for the croc anyway.
Came here for this. Was not disappointed.
No, then it would have been “part of his plan, which we won’t understand until after we die”
Couldn’t they just give it a one-way Greyhound ticket to Florida?
Makes me think about the urban legend of the bible that was untouched during a house fire that destroyed the home and killed all the residents, and everyone remarking what a miracle it was.

Crocodiles are not native to Ohio. It was probably some gentleman who thought it would be cool to have for a pet, then realized it wouldn’t make a good pet and released it into the wild. Hopefully it isn’t an invasive species and won’t become one.
Undoubtedly. In addition to crocodiles not being native to Ohio - it was a saltwater crocodile. Last I checked, Ohio isn’t near any saltwater.
But those church kids are so tasty! He could not resist.
