That would have been interesting for the pilot.

Reminds me of a croc egg taker who was dropped off by chopper
and while the chopper was waiting, the mother croc came back and jumped up and into the chopper through the open passenger door.

Crocs can be interesting. I was helping to transport a small one once, about four feet. We had it in a cooler in the back of a van. The driver and another fellow were up front, and I was sitting on the cooler. We hit a big bump and I broke through the cooler, the croc came out about 100 miles per hour, and I'm not sure exactly what went on for the next 20 seconds or so. We did exit the van with haste, once it was stopped, and later reentered and recaptured the croc. But for about half a minute there was nothing but noise and confusion.
