VIDEO: Stone the flaming crows as Crocodile Dundee star does draw for Davis Cup match

From a very safe distance

Them crazy Aussies don’t do things by half do they?

Being a competitive country I imagine that the whole reason behind using a crocodile to do the latest draw for the Davis Cup Q-finals was to scare the shite out of their opponents.

And in our eyes at least it worked.

And just any old croc either, but a bona fide star of Crocodile Dundee, Burt.

Clearly he hasn’t lost any of his bite over the years as she snaps the name tag off the clothes line above his home to set up a meeting between Australia and Kazakhstan.

The draw was made at the wonderfully named Crocosaurus Cove in Darwin for the q-finals of the Davis Cup taking place this weekend.

Although we have been assured that Burt will not be playing.

Thankfully.
