The photographer, Trevor Frost, says crocodiles have very strong tails to help them propel out of the water.

“Crocodiles have incredibly strong tails. Their tails propel them in the water like torpedoes from a submarine. In fact, as you see here, their tails are so strong that they can propel their entire body out of the water. Crocodiles are so cool.”
