A bride-to-be lost her arm to a crocodile in South Africa, five days before her wedding.

 

The woman’s husband punched the 2.5 meter reptile repeatedly to save her, but her arm was only freed when the croc did a death roll and ripped her arm off.

 

The wedding went ahead as planned - minus a limb - and the couple says it was a miracle to say their vows after the traumatic experience.
