When they were leaving, their wives both said they had always wanted a pair of crocodile shoes, but they were too expensive to buy. Could they get them each a pair as they would be easier to get in Africa ?

They promised to bring back two pairs, so the first evening they asked the hotel porter if there were any crocs nearby.

He said there was a river full of them just behind the hotel. So they stole out to the river, one stripped off and the other armed himself with a large branch.

The naked one jumped into the water and when a croc chased him to the bank he jumped out and his partner stunned the croc.

When there was a pile of crocs on the bank after half an hour, the swimmer said, "look here, I’m tired and soaking wet, I’ll go in one last time,

and if this crocodile isn't wearing shoes, I’ve had enough!"
