1. BAREFOOT BUSHMAN Solomon's Story & Crocodile (2 DVD Set)
Disc 1 - Solomon's Story
This is a natural history of Rob Bredl’s largest crocodile, Solomon. Solomon was caught as a 4 metre rogue near Bamaga in the Cape York Peninsula.
When he arrived he seemed to be different from other wild caught crocodiles. Rob came to believe that he had let this one go as a baby from the crocodile farm at Edward River. Years later, Solomon became famous for attacking and nearly killing Rob’s niece, Karla. Rob and Karla tell us just what went wrong and we learn of her remarkable rescue by her father Joe.

Disc 2 - Crocodile
Australia’s first Crocodile Documentary filmed at Australia’s first Crocodile Farm. Filmed in 1972, this program is one of the first ever to be made on crocodiles in Australia. It gives a rare glimse of life at Edward River when Joe Bredl with the help of his son Rob, fought to create the Edward River Crocodile farm, at a time when almost nothing was known about crocodiles and they were a species bordering on extinction in Australia.
2. BAREFOOT BUSHMAN Kissing Crocodiles
The Barefoot Bushman series is an extraordinary look at some of the most feared wild animals in Australia through the eyes of Rob Bredl—a real live Crocodile Dundee.
In ‘Kissing Crocodiles’, Rob explains what he believes is the true nature of the crocodile. Having spent years hunting, breeding and living with them, he says they are purely instinctive, not vicious and cunning as generally perceived.
This DVD includes footage that has never been seen
before: Crocodile attacks and kills, close-ups, egg laying and breeding. Rob sits on their backs, puts his hand in their mouths and kisses them on the nose—he even swims with a 4.5 metre crocodile. There are also some remarkable stories from people who have been attacked and narrowly escaped.
