NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO.

Nightmares swim among us in a new Instagram video by National Geographic photographer Trevor Frost.

While in northern Australia snapping shots of saltwater crocodiles for Science magazine, Frost showcased the strength of a croc's tail and proved humans are weak, soft meat bags waiting to be devoured by nature's most savage monsters.

In his caption, the photographer shared,

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.

THAT'S SUCH GREAT NEWS, TREV. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TEACHING US THIS MAGNIFICENT FACT. IT IS NOW BURNED INTO OUR MEMORIES. BURN ALL THE BOATS.
