Australia: Crocodile Bites Off a Woman's Arm In a 'Death Roll'.

A woman in her 60s, was at Three Mile Creek in Wyndham, about 3,200 kilometres (2,000 miles) north of Perth, on Wednesday afternoon when a croc lunged, and in a 'death roll' formation bite off the woman's arm and made away with it in a smart move, Western Australia's Country Health Service told us.
            'death Roll' is a crocodile plunging behaviour in which the croc rolls in an amazing active twist, twisting to rip-off any part of the prey it get hold of, at the same time rolling with the prey. Meanwhile, She was flown to the Royal Darwin Hospital in neighbouring Northern Territory in a stable condition, and underwent surgery late Wednesday.
An eye witnese gave little explanation of how it happened:

          
"She was beside a very small creek 300 metres down from our Five Rivers Cafe on the Great Northern Highway... at some stage, a crocodile came out and attacked her," cafe owner Michael Snowball told AFP.
"It came out of the water and grabbed her and did a death roll and took her arm off near the elbow."
