How did the crocodile cross the lake?



He hopped on the back of a hippo to get to the other side.



It may sound like a joke but these amazing pictures from Tanzania capture a crazy croc doing just that.



Caught in the middle of a hippopotamus fight, the reptile grabbed on to one of the powerful mammals' backs.



The three-ton beast was so distracted by the commotion around her that she had no idea a five-year-old predator was perched on top of her.



British wildlife guide Mark Johnson took the incredible pictures while he was guiding tourists on a river safari on the Luwego River near Lukula.



The female hippo made her way to shore but ended up with the scaly intruder on her back as she emerged from the water.



Mr Johnson, who moved to Tanzania as a child, and his group watched in amazement as the croc clung on for half-a-minute before it slid into the water.



'It has to be one of the funniest things I've ever seen,' he said.
