Still, calm you think,There can't be any dangers in that. 你仍然可能自我安慰说   这条河还是很安全的

Look. See, all these trees almost reaching across the river here. 还有这些树 基本上已经横跨了整条河流

Just not quite.Keep going and see if we can find a better one. 但是还不够保险 我们再找找看有更合适的树

It does go across the river all the way.Gives us the camera.Let's just do this. 借助这棵  绝对能够横跨这条河了 把摄像机给我 准备跨河吧

See, it's pretty solid at this stage. 树的这个位置还很稳固

The croc then waited in ambush⁵ for the other two under the tree for two days until, finally, they were rescued by helicopter. 然后那条鳄鱼在树下蹲守着 另外两个人  长达两天两夜 一直守到他们被直升机救走

Look. There are bubbles there.I'm worrying about the crocs, but I've got to stay focused. 看  那里有水泡冒出来了 鳄鱼的出没会让我分心  但是我必须集中精神
