Cahill's Crossing - Crocodile Causeway Music Video by Gary Crockett Australia.

Cahill's Crossing in Kakadu National Park, over the East Alligator River, is one of the most crocodile-dense crossings on earth — a low, narrow causeway where saltwater crocodiles gather to feed on mullet and barramundi as the tide spills over the road.

Watch the full official music video for Cahill's Crossing by Gary Crockett.

In this video:
A 4WD crosses the causeway at low tide, a semi-trailer with two trailers crawls across, fishermen take a risk on the edge, a man catches a fish — and a crocodile grabs it — then a crocodile chases the fish he's dragging, before the fishermen leave and the crocodiles take the causeway back as the tide comes in.

If you love Australian country music, Kakadu, crocodiles, 4WD adventures, Arnhem Land, and true stories from the Top End — turn it up.

The crossing is dangerous from both tides and crocodiles. Don't try what you see in this video. Watch from the viewing platforms, check the tides, and stay back from the water.

00:11Down that car hills cross where the river's deep
00:15Soft water crocks they play for keeps
00:18Two poor souls met their fate
00:21In the jaws of danger it's too late
00:27Rivers edge where shadows creep
00:30Hungry eyes that never sleep
00:33Silent hunters in the stream
00:36Living nightmares not just dreams
00:40Oh car hills crossing dark and wild
00:44Fifty crops with a wicked smile
00:47Beware of the waters don't you tread
00:50Or you'll end up cold and dead
00:55Ripples move in eerie graves
00:58Crops appear without a trace
01:01No warning given no time to pray
01:04One last step you'll be praying
01:08Oh car hills crossing dark and wild
01:12Fifty crops with a wicked smile
01:14Beware of the waters don't you tread
01:18Or you'll end up cold and dead
01:20Legends speak in hushed low tones
01:24Stay away or lose your bones
01:27Ethos heart blown in night air
01:30And car hills crossing best beware
01:33Chris Franklin's death
01:34You will last year
01:46Bye bye bye bye

02:13Oh, car hills crossing dark and wild
02:16Fifty clocks with a wicked smile
02:18Beware the waters, don't you tread
02:20Or you'll end up cold and dead
02:22And dead
02:28Ripples move in eerie grace
02:31Crocs appeal without a trace
02:34No warning given, no time to pray
02:38One misstep, you'll be prayed
02:42And be prayed
02:46And day
02:47Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, day
02:52Oh, you'll end up cold and dead
02:56Legends speak in hushed low tones
