Boyfriend leaves girlfriend to deal with crocodile in resort pool

A relaxing night at an African resort took a terrifying turn when a crocodile took a dive into the pool and attacked two swimmers.

Heart-stopping surveillance footage obtained by CCTV shows the couple splashing around the pool in Kariba, Zimbabwe, last Thursday when the croc hopped into the water — heading straight towards the couple.

The man quickly escaped, causing the carnivorous crocodile to turn its snout on the woman.

She is cornered by the big-toothed reptile, but escapes mostly unscathed, save for a few scrapes.

The crocodile, meanwhile, remains soaking in the pool.
