- Lynsey Dyer talks with Chris Korbulic and Ben Stookesberry about their film Kadoma. "Kadoma" was a nickname for Hendri Coetzee, a legendary South African kayaker who had explored some of Africa's wildest rivers. In December of 2010, American pro kayakers Chris and Ben followed Coetzee into the Democratic Republic of Congo for a first descent of the dangerous Lukuga River. Seven weeks into the expedition, tragedy struck.

I feel so bad for this man. Imagine the pain to have a 1000 pound monster latch on to your shoulder with one of the strongest bite forces on this planet. Shattering the shoulder bone immediately and piercing the flesh. Then in a split second before you can catch a breath it uses its body weight to flip your kayak and you are upside down under the water. And in your last moments of life you feel this beast rip you from the tight fitting seat of your kayak and take you to the bottom of the river you struggle but you can't escape. You slowly drown in the crushing jaws of a monster. Your last thoughts being the regret of having constantly searched for your next thrill. Because if you hadn't you wouldn't be here dying in the jaws of a 15 foot Nile crocodile. You also wonder why it was you who was chosen by this predator. It is heart breaking truly. Rest in peace now.
jesus christ man...
This is... so specific are you alright my man are you the guy that got snatch by the death lizard
It wasn't 1 crocodile,they said 15 20 foot 2000 pound crocs that were laying on the shore saw them and dozens jumped into the water towards them.... fucken must have been 1 of the scariest things alive.
He is a hero. If it wasn’t for Hendri’s sacrifice these boys would be dead too.
@@jessearias12 lololol
The true spirit of adventure is not for the many but the few! life and death and risks are always there, but for some thats "living"
I hate that you can’t find this film anywhere. Why leave the trailer if it leads to nothing?
Thank you for not letting me waste my time

@@cjhobson1202 the docu is on my channel
@lakeblackBLM No it's not
Bull... these kind of people deliberately and knowingly head into extremely dangerous places. leaving family and friends to deal with this nightmare. Shame on you.
Its a terrible way to go and shocking to the family and people who witnessed it. But it does seem like hendri had a death wish, its a miracle he didnt die earlier in his life in africa. Its gives me chills when supposedly when croc got a hold of him,, he didnt scream in panic but said “oh my god in a weird way form intonating reality.
In his book he details the many times he was attacked by crocodiles, having to throw his helmet into the water cus one was too fast.
Is it impossible to watch this film now? I cant find it on youtube or vimeo. I cant find anywhere to buy it. Seems like this movie is just gone
i saw it last year. they did remove it.
@@FunKaYxxD1sCO A friend of mine has the movie he recorded it.

@lakeblackBLM has it on his channel
I saw the documentary. It happened shortly after they got into the water. Their friend was lagging behind them. The camera was on his friend and he was looking back and said "Oh a croc just grabbed Hendri!" They started paddling quickly to get to the bank. The camera then showed his kayak upside down. You can see the final yank when the croc snatched him from out of the kayak.
Quite eye opening because you literally never see them after that.
What's the name of the documentary? I've been looking for it but can't find it.
@@Leszczuk23 it’s on my channel it’s called kadoma

If someone have the link thanks

My channel has it now
It seemed as if The locals were laughing
Like they knew this was suicide growing up around the rivers there.. Not putting this comment as a laughing matter but it just hit me when I heard all of them gathered at the bank laughing watching them paddle off.. creepy..
Exactly what I was thinking, I heard laughs and I also heard as if a “Warning sign” was being said by the group of locals
They had warned them prior. Hendri and crew knew all the dangers.
Actually the locals warned Hendricks and his crew bout hippos and crocs but yeah they were laughing cause they know if not one or all them weren’t coming back
@@anthonymcfadden9628 you didn’t need to respond with Actually, what I said never discredited that they never did warn them.. I was positive they were warned back in the village but as there leaving you can just tell by them cackling.. It’s a journey that’s unlikely to be finished without chaos. @siddharth Naik
I bet there is a reason why the video isnt on youtube. Comment here if you think you know what the reason may be.
It’s on UA-cam now on my channel
It’s not a well known documentary and finding a copy of it is hard
Does anyone remember the word used in his tribute? Its display in the documentary!
Kadoma it’s on my channel btw😊
@@lakeblackBLMNo its not!
and that’s why u don’t go kayaking on the NILE- suicide
I really don't know what to think about it.
Where's the footage of the man in the kayak and then camera pans. screams. camera pans back. No man in kayak. Kayak just spinning.
They filmed something for discovery or nat geo where they went back to try to catch the croc responsible. The footage you reference is in that doc 👍

I guess you never know when your last adventure will be...
When you choose to do stupid shit, Id imagine it will be fairly soon.😊
Fuck youtube how do you sencor this?
I've got to say I'm a very lucky man I was swimming in a river once and no one has seen a crocodile in this river for decades but I guess my luck is horrible WAM a 2 and a half meter saltie grabs me leg and tries to pull my under I don't know if it was the grace of God or just sheer luck but I was able to pull out my little 6 inch flip type of pocket knife and I just stab and stab and just when I felt like my life was slipping away I must of hit its eye or somewhere soft but this thing let's me go I immediately surface and just swam to the shore without looking back but constantly thinking its going to have another go at me but nope nothing I made it to shore and immediately starting screaming for help I guess the people thought I was joking until they came up on me and saw the puncture wounds in me leg and torn flesh nobody could believe a croc had attacked me but it did and I had the proof ever since then I've never gone back to any water not even a pool it traumatized me I just thought I put it out there so I understand what it's like if it was a 4 or 5 meter croc I probably wouldn't of been here to tell the take
So sad these guys tried to profit from this guy’s death.
Was Hendri's body found?? Did he have life insurance ??
No and no. Search efforts never recovered his remains nor did they find the crocodile responsible although it is known the crocodile was a Nile croc. No life insurance.
I watched the film and still don't understand exactly how it happened.. was it the croc that tipped his kayak over or a hippo?
@@sassycat6487 yea its not very clear but his friends claim that it was a croc that flipped the boat from under and ate him which is highly possible. If it was a hippo they would have found the body
@@anthonymacrobert4075 I hope his soul rest his peace he seem like a good man
@@sassycat6487 yes it was a crocodile a friend witnessed it the crocodile latched on to his shoulder. It was likely 15ft+ only nile crocodiles live in that region. Extremely aggressive known man eaters. Not only that the kayak flipped upside down it was shaking for a few seconds then turned back up to the surface at which point he was gone. Hippos do not attack in that way. Sad to say make no mistake this man was taken by a crocodile and he was eaten entirely.
Dayummmnnn, those guys are total terds.
