The video, recorded Friday on the Adelaide River in the Northern Territory, shows the man recalling the sad fate of his 3-week-old Akubra, a style of hat made famous in the United States by the Crocodile Dundee films.

"I was wearing my brand new 3 week old Akubra while at work feeding crocodiles on the Adelaide River in the Northern Territory when a gust of wind blew it off my head into the river, where subsequently a bloody crocodile decided to have it for lunch," the man wrote.
