Anderson Cooper swims with dangerous crocodiles
Swimming with crocodiles. It sounds crazy, but that's exactly what two wildlife filmmakers in Botswana are doing to help us learn more about these amazing but deadly creatures.
Our Anderson Cooper decided to join them for one of their dives. His story aired last night on CBS's "60 Minutes".
"It's eerie & intimidating down here. The only light comes from our cameras & it's easy to lose your way. Brad signals that he sees a crocodile. At first I can't see anything, but then out of the darkness, on the floor of the cave, just as Brad warned, I see that gleaming row of white teeth.
To finally see one, it's amazing. There's a beauty to it, but it's also incredibly intimidating. You really have the sense when you're so close to it of just how strong it is and it looks right at you and you know and it knows that it could attack you at any moment and there's nothing you can do about it."

Sandusky speaks out from prison; questions credibility of prosecution witness
From behind bars - Jerry Sandusky, the former Penn State assistant football coach who was convicted last June of 45 counts of child sex abuse - says he doesn't know why a key witness in the case thought something inappropriate was going on when he was showering with a boy.
Sandusky speaks from prison: Witness's 'story changed a lot'
Here's a portion of his interview with filmmaker John Ziegler, which aired on NBC:
"I don't understand how anybody would have walked into that locker room from where he was and heard sounds associated that was sex going on like he said that could've been. I mean, that would have been the last thing I would have thought about. I would have thought maybe fooling around or something like that," Sandusky said.
