A wide jungle river crossing in grey daylight, thick green rainforest on both banks and a sandbar in the middle. An army tank is fording the river, water up to its tracks. A mega crocodile, huge as a truck, has clamped onto the side of the tank and is dragging it sideways into the deep water, the crew climbing out of the top hatch. On the bank, a soldier loads a rocket launcher. Sound: groaning metal, rushing water, shouting men, croc hissing, radio voices. Shot 1 (0–3s) — THE HOOK: Low shot across the water. The mega crocodile has its jaws locked on the tank's side, pulling it sideways off the crossing into deeper water, the tank tilting as water washes over the tracks. The crew scramble up out of the top hatch. One shouts into his radio: "IT'S DRAGGING THE TANK UNDER!" Shot 2 (3–6s): On the riverbank. A soldier drops to one knee, lifts a rocket launcher onto his shoulder, and aims at the river — but holds his fire, the croc still tight against the tank with the crew on top. He calls on the radio: "Push it off! Swing the gun!" Shot 3 (6–9s): At the tank. The crew swing the tank's long main gun around hard and ram the barrel into the crocodile's side, shoving it off the hull. The croc loses its grip and slides off into the shallows, spilling up onto the open sandbar in the middle of the river, rearing its head up in the clear. Shot 4 (9–13s) — BIG SLOW-MOTION MOMENT: The croc is out in the open on the sandbar now. The soldier fires from the bank. Bullet time — the rocket streaks across the water in slow motion, smoke trailing behind it, straight into the crocodile. The hit throws its huge body sideways, water and wet sand hanging in the air. Shot 5 (13–15s): Time snaps back. A big burst of fire and smoke rolls across the sandbar as the crocodile drops and lies still. The tank crew climb back down as the tank steadies in the shallow water. Smoke drifts over the river.
