In the autumn of 1935, when I was a young man, I was travelling in India. One evening I was returning home. On my right there was a wide river; on my left, a thick dark forest. It was getting dark, and I was walking along a narrow path. Suddenly I saw two green eyes looking at me from among the trees. A man-eating tiger was getting ready to jump on me. What could I do? I looked to the right. In the river there was an immense crocodile waiting to welcome me with its mouth wide open. I was so frightened that I shut my eyes. I heard branches moving as the tiger jumped. I opened my eyes. The tiger jumped right over me and was now in the jaws of the crocodile.

Immense – величезний
