<\/p>\n

A farmer has survived a near-deadly run-in with a crocodile after he bit the beast back.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Colin Deveraux, who is in his mid 60s, managed to defend himself from the beast by using his own teeth to take a bite of the crocodile\u2019s eye.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Deveraux, who lives in the Northern territory of Australia, is a veteran cattleman.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He said he tried to kick the crocodile in the ribs with his left foot, and when that didn\u2019t work he bit the croc in the eyelid.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI was in such an awkward position \u2026 but by accident my teeth caught his eyelid.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was pretty thick, like holding onto leather, but I jerked back on his eyelid and he let go. I leapt away and took off with great steps up to where my car was.<\/p>\n

“He chased me for a bit, maybe four metres, but then stopped,” the farmer told ABC News.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe water had receded and it was down to this dirty water in the middle.\u00a0I took two steps and the dirty b*****d latched onto my right foot.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a big grab and he shook me like a rag doll and took off back into the water, pulling me in.\u201d<\/p>\n
