The Burma Front, February 1945. After a six-week battle for control of Ramree Island, a unit of the Imperial Japanese Army is on the run from Allied Forces. Desperate for an escape to the mainland, a thousand men take to crocodile infested waters... and perish at the jaws of the hungry beasts. Seventy years on, the event still stands as the world's worst crocodile disaster in the Guinness World Records. But is all as it seems? Historian Sam Willis and urban explorer Robert Joe head to modern-day Myanmar to dig into the circumstances behind the incident. From coastal mangroves to mountain jungles, their search takes them across the country to reveal dark chapters that pushed events towards that fateful night. And the final truth they arrive at-under the surface of terrible legends often lies a truth that is even weirder.
