Original song and music video by Gary Crockett about a Northern Territory Legend Sweetheart the Saltwater Crocodile who was known to have attacked around 20 boats at Sweets Billabong. They trapped Sweetheart but it drowned before they could drag it out of the water. An autopsy found a large bullet lodged in Sweethearts spine which is probably the reason it was so agressive towards boats.
