A man who was mauled by a five-metre crocodile after climbing into its enclosure in Western Australia's north says he did it because he wanted to know what its skin felt like.

Michal Newman, 36, jumped into the crocodile's pen at a Broome wildlife park on Monday night and was bitten on the leg.

He suffered serious leg injuries and underwent surgery yesterday.

Mr Newman, who was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the attack, says he just wanted to pat the massive reptile.

"I thought to myself, well I will jump the fence and go from behind its tail and pat it and sit on its back," he said.
More at the link, including an interview, eh?
