Don't try this at home!

The song was a number one hit in Germany... The translated lyrics:
"I am Shnappi
The little crocodile
I come from Egypt
Which lies direct on the Nile
First, I lay in an egg
then I shni shna shnapped myself free!
Shi shna shnappi, shnappi, shnappi shnap!"

Here's the video! Click on the black movie-camera icon in the top left corner. (Not for those with a weak stomach.)

Esbat --Actually that's NOT the real video to the song. (The real video is a cutsie-kids animated thing.) The singer is a 4 year old girl; her aunt wrote the song for her.

I was so sick of that song until I saw it combined with this video footage. Now I like it again!
If you look carefully, I swear that crocodile is smiling ... and I was sure I saw him wink at the audience just before, as if to say "OK, wait for it... here's the best part of the show!"¨(And the croc looks like he's ready to take a bow at the end! The star of the show!)

Everytime I see it I scream "O.M.G.. No way!!!!!" but c'mon the guy was asking for it. I hate when animals are made to look dumb for human entertainment.
