Rare albino-headed crocodile named after Michael Jackson kills fisherman in northern Australia.

Yes, you read that right. My comments follow the article.

Michael Jackson.

JABIRU, AUSTRALIA (BNO NEWS) — A rare albino-headed crocodile named after Michael Jackson was shot dead Monday after the reptile snatched a man who was out fishing with his wife along a river in northern Australia, emergency services said on Tuesday, just weeks after another fatal attack.

The latest incident happened on late Monday afternoon when a 57-year-old man was fishing with his wife on the bank of the Adelaide River in Australia’s Northern Territory. He was suddenly snatched by the large crocodile when he entered the water to retrieve his line which had become snagged.

Northern Watch Commander Senior Sergeant Garry Smith said police later recovered the body of the victim, whose identity was not immediately disclosed. “Condolences to the family at this tragic time,” he said. “I thank all those from the attending emergency units for your efforts.”

The victim’s body was located near the crocodile responsible for the attack, after which the 4.5 meter (14-foot, 7-inch)-long reptile was shot and killed by members from the Water Police Section and Rangers from Parks and Wildlife NT. The culprit was identified as a rare and popular albino-headed crocodile which was named after the late ‘King of Pop’ Michael Jackson, who suffered from a skin condition called vitiligo.

I just have a couple comments regarding this article.

First of all, there is absolutely nothing funny about a man getting eaten by a crocodile. However, there is something intrinsically funny about a man getting eaten by a “rare and popular” albino-headed crocodile named after the “King of Pop,” Michael Jackson.

Secondly, we can’t really blame the crocodile, can we? He was probably just hungry and feeling a little light-headed.

Hey-O!

God, I hate myself right now.
