10. Tawi Tawi Crocodile
In 2017, a fisherman who was working in the waters off the coast of Tawi Tawi island in the Philippines saw what he thought was a large log floating in the ocean. As he approached it, it began to move, and it dawned upon him that this was, in fact, a giant crocodile.
9. Jaws III
Jaws 3 was, until his death at the age of around 45 in January of 2020, believed to be the largest crocodile to be held in captivity in Asia. He was born at the Madras Crocodile Bank in India in the 1970s when the park was intended to become a crocodile farm. Its purpose soon changed to become a wildlife sanctuary and, at its peak, had more than 8 thousand crocodiles of 14 different species on the premises.
8. Puento Noire Crocodile
This is the only image that exists of the Puento Noire Crocodile… an enormous Nile crocodile that had been causing problems near Puento Noire in the Republic of Congo. It was seen as a major risk to the local community, especially to fishermen who worked near to where it roamed, and it had already been blamed for hunting farmers’ livestock.
7. Gomek
Gomek was a saltwater crocodile that was captured in Papua New Guinea at some time in the early 1980s. He was purchased by a couple in Florida in 1985, and they kept him at their home for 5 years before he outgrew his pen and they weren't able to care for him any longer. They sold him to the St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park in 1990 where he became an instant favorite to visitors.
6. Cassius
Named for Cassius Clay (AKA the boxer Muhammad Ali), Cassius the crocodile was once recognized by the Guiness Book of World Records as being the largest crocodile in captivity at a length of 18 feet and a weight of 2,200 pounds. He's a saltwater croc and had become a severe problem in the Finniss River of Australia’s Northern Territory.
5. Yai
Siamese crocodiles were once common throughout southeast Asia, but thanks to habitat destruction, and hunting for meat and also for safety, their numbers have rapidly dwindled in recent decades. If you want to see quite how large and fearsome these crocs can be, however, you can visit the Samutprakarn Crocodile Farm and Zoo in Thailand.
4. Brutus
Brutus the crocodile is just over 18 feet long and lives in the Adelaide River in Australia’s Northern Territory. He’s a saltwater croc, and has become somewhat of a local legend thanks to a series of incredible images that have been taken of him.
3. Bujang Senang
Deadly monsters often become a part of local folklore, and in Malaysia, near the Pelaban river, people long spoke of a crocodile called Bujang Senang. According to the legends, he was a human warrior who, while trying to rescue his wife, was killed by her kidnappers. As his body floated away, a shaman turned him into a crocodile so he could get his revenge on his enemies.
2. Dominator
Despite his fame, Brutus isn’t actually the biggest or baddest saltwater crocodile in the Adelaide river in Australia… that honor goes to another one called ‘Dominator’, that lives just a bit further down.
1. Lolong
The Bunawan creek in the Philippines is somewhat of a hotspot for giant crocodiles, and in 2011 residents were fearful for their lives thanks to an absolute monster that was roaming the waters. After attacking boats, and suspected of killing a fisherman and a young girl over the previous few months, authorities had no choice but to find a way to remove him.

Maybe he didn’t stack up against these monsters, but I’m disappointed there’s no mention of Pocho, the ‘domesticated’ giant crocodilian.
Back in Florida with some friends in 1999 . We were on a vacation and drove to adventure some Crocs & Alligator. Had fun and it's just once in a lifetime.
Katrina once again so honored to be a sub here, you guys are amazing and I love your videos. My absolute one and only favorite channel. Thank you to you and your team!!! 💋
i spend half day watching Origins Explained and it was worth it....LOVE IT
the death roll is takin to a whole nother meaning seeing them crocks twist on a stick smh lol
thanks for mentioning about Bujang Senang from Sarawak Malaysia and make it into ur top 10 list
good to see a vid that aligns with my interests (working with crocs). Gustav is by far my fav. Nile croc that's around 18ft estimated age of 50-60 and has over 300 kills (human) and has never been captured as he just rips everything apart

Hey, Katrina and Origins Explained crew! I was pleasantly surprised and happy to see Gomek on the list today! St Augustine is my hometown and I grew up within walking distance of The Alligator Farm, where Gomek lived the good life for MANY YEARS. I even worked at the gift shop inside as my 2nd job ever at 16. Wow! 20 years ago. I still frequently drive by The Alligator Farm to visit my mom. 😍🐊🐊🐊
I love the gorgeous prehistoric crocodiles ! They are true alive dinosaurs ! Love this video !
Love the Your videos, this one was amazing. I've always loved Crocs and gators, I haven't had crocs before. But I've had gator, it was ok. The meat had some kind of spice mixed into it, and it was too spicy for me. Also, since you did one for crocodiles. Could you do a top 10 for Gators?
Thanks for sharing this video regarding different types of Crocodile. Yes , I have eaten Crocodile back in Florida way back then .
I love your videos so much you help with my knowledge
Thank you so much for your time in sharing this video. God bless 😇 you and , more power for you. Good luck and, until then.
Love the vids! When you don't say bye at the end it makes me sad

Shout out to me from the 🇵🇭 Trivia: Lolong was named after Ernesto "Lolong" Goloran Cañete as one of the veteran crocodile hunters from the Palawan Crocodile and Wildlife Reservation Center, who led the hunt. After weeks of stalking, the hunt for Lolong took its toll on Cañete's health. He died of a heart attack several days before the crocodile was captured.
Yes Lolong is the largest crocodile in the world and he was found in Mindanao specifically in Bunawan Creek in Agusan del Sur and I think our house is 20 miles away in Agusan del Sur. Just by the way I was expecting Lolong to be in the number 1 so I'm just proud to be Filipino. By the way I subscribed to you channel and also liked it and I just love the videos so keep it up guys
I love your videos and find most facinating, especially this one. Keep it up. 💜 Can't wait to see your next video, and hope for a shout-out someday.
there is no way i would ever mess with a croc. lol. thanks katrina.
I'm probably the only one who came because I'm Filipino and I knew at least one crocodile from the Philippines will be here. Edit: Love your videos too (I'm a new subscriber) 😊😊😊❤💖💗💘💝💞

Hmmmm they said, there were 2 giant crocs back then. Lolong and the other one is.. I don't know the name. Lalang? lol. Anyway the other one is a lot bigger. It's just that, they no longer know where it went after being chased.. By the way new sub here :)
i have been in a lake where they are common but sadly never saw one.
You are doing informative videos
I have been excitedly waiting for biggest croc discovery all my life. Hope they found Lolong’s brother in Agusan Lake or maybe Gustave in Burundi.

Crocodiles are "farmed" for meat and hide in Australia. I have tried a croc burger it was quite tasty and doesn't taste like chicken.

Krys from my home river, the Norman river. Rumours in Karumba that there are 2 bigger crocs currently inhabiting the Norman river.
I love your videos from AJ uni
You should check out the immortal crocodile i just feartured in a video.
Hi Ms. Katrina! Im from Philippines and I do believe that Lolong deserves to be the number one croc in the world. But I heard that hunters are looking for another one named Toolong.
Hello! You make great video's (My name is pronounced like ja-me-sha)
The number ten one his name is lolong im from the philippines
Tourist can hang on the platform as bait at a crocodile farm?
Never had crocodile but I've had alligator many times and it's pretty delicious.
I love your voice. Love from nagaland
It's like rubbery chicken
I would love a shout and keep up the video I love your story.
Lolong is the biggest I found him out on TV
